Wonderling

garden!

So I finally planted my garden this weekend. My mom came over and we cleared out the blackberry vines and planted the starts. There's corn, chives and basil in the back corner. Squash in the cage (last year the squirrels ate all my squash before it could get any bigger than a peanut). 

On this side are pole beans, parsley, oregano, onions and tomatoes. The marigolds around everything are to keep out pests. 

I finally clipped the chickens wings so they can roam the yard while I'm working in the garden. They had so much fun they were actually purring! The one in the foreground is taking a dirt bath. It kind of looks like she's having a seizure, but she was in chicken heaven. 

Moss Art

This is a clock made out of living moss! I want to try this so bad, but the recipe for making the "spray on" moss is supposedly difficult to master. 

Garden Pictures...finally!

So I got a new camera and that seemed to be motivation to take pictures of my, poor, unattended garden that seems to be plugging along greatly with very little effort on my end

My experimental corn. I can't believe it's even growing..it barely gets any light!

My squash-patch. way too crowded and, thanks to this photo session, I found out something is eating the blooms. Thank goodness I have some left over chicken wire.

My tomatoes! They grew super tall (trying to get to the light), but now they've got little green lovelies all over!
