The weather has continued to be mild, with a good mix of sun and rain. The garden is continuing to surprise us with its good health and vitality.

Sharon Kallis, Georgia and Oliver check on the cereal crops |
|
The Chinook wheat has 'ears' already -- much sooner than we expected.
This one stalk grew about eight inches more than all the others! |
|
Our 'volunteer' tomato plant is looking pretty good, all things considered. |
|
The flax is looking gorgeous -- week 3 |
|
Georgia squeezes the dye liquid from the fleece we popped into the jar last week -- this is the dye made from purple pansies |
|
We 'dead-headed' our flourishing crop of marigolds -- there must have been 5 lbs worth of blossoms -- and Sharon took them for drying so we can use them later in the season to dye some of our flax. |
