Almost all of our gardening is done in raised beds and containers. Herbs, veggies, and flowers are evenly balanced to attract hummingbirds and pollinaters. This year we started late, but since the weather warmed up the plants are making up for lost time. Four varieties of tomatoes are set, but not ripened. Blueberries have been plentiful for a couple weeks. The beans and cukes are coming along nicely. Golden zucchini have been good in stir-fry, salad and sauteed with parmesan. There's a couple peppers still in the blooming stage; looking for them to come on strong next month.We've had more leaf lettuce than we could eat this spring; perhaps Nick has an old-timey recipe for pickling it, or drying it for a tasty trail snack .
