Wear big T-shirts in the garden. They make a great garden gathering basket! These are the seven Silver Line Melons I harvested today. That's not counting the three insect damaged ones I gave to the chickens.
The bush green beans planted a few weeks ago are doing nicely.
A success story. Below are the purple hull peas I planted. I planted them with seeds I saved from last year. From the looks of it every single one sprouted. Who hoo!

Too funny because I do that with my t-shirts too. Sometimes even my nightgown if it is early in the morning. Good thing I live way out in the country where no one can see me..... Your garden looks wonderful.
