Strawberries and rhubarb


Rhubarb is always the first harvest. Made rhubarb chutney and a rhubarb almond tart (Rita B. recipe).
Our first year with enough strawberries at home - no Finks for us this year!

Four raised beds bursting with berries starting June 9. A mixed berry jam (w/ garden rhubarb too), strawberry Indian spice chutney, and froze 10 quart bags - plus lots of eating for us and the neighbors!


The squash (pictures taken June 20) are just starting.

But the transplanted tomatoes are looking a bit further along. Hannah guards the young plants from any intruders that might happen to break the fence barrier!
