Today the days begin to become shorter. This is probably the peak of the summer growing season right now, much of the flowering being done already and development of the ears of corn and other vegetable edibles well underway, to continue for another month. Growing season started seriously a couple weeks ago, which means that we get maybe two months of farming and gardening activities before winter starts to bite us again.

I just finished buying my fall seeds and am now planning my late summer and fall plantings!

Cole crops like broccoli, broccoli raab, cabbage, brussels sprouts. Bok choy and spinach and beets. Lettuce. And best of all, garlic.
