It is the blogiversary for my Chickensinthegarden blog! Five years of writing for this blog! My loyal readers and fans: thank you for reading. It has been great fun to post photos of the garden and relate sagas about the chickens and gardening here in our little spot in northern California.
Right now the Pink Pearl apples are falling off of the trees. The Early Girl tomatoes are producing well, as are some of the summer squash. I got a late start on the pole beans but the vines are growing taller every day. The purple spouting broccoli was planted too close to the other plants, but it is healthy and thriving and we should be able to eat some of the broccoli very soon.
The French prune plums are ripening, and we've started to pick some for drying. The squirrels are eating lots of the plums this year.
Both the Red Russian Kale and the regular green kale are growing well, and the eggplants and pepper plants are very healthy. We've got some chard and red onions too, and we've harvested and are drying the garlic.
