The peaches are coming along.

The collard greens on the left are bolting, the elephant garlic at their base are tipping over, brussel spouts are along the far fence with some late tomato plants just this side of them, squash and cucumbers in the middle to the left of the center fence and green beans to the right of fence. In the foreground are carrots, onions and regular garlic. A few volunteer flowers.
The other side of the garden is mostly herbs, flowers, a couple lemon trees and random leftover starts I threw in the ground.

Thanks for looking, my garden is my relaxation. I get a lot of enjoyment from it as well as some fine food. We’ve harvested cauliflower, broccolI and onions, strawberries, collard greens, brussel sprouts and dried a variety of herbs.

Good looking crop. I didn't get the first peach or lemon this year thanks to a very late hard freeze. Maybe next year.

I don’t see a honey bee hive? Another way to get some satisfaction working in the garden. I thought I was going to see 10’ tall marijuana plants when I clicked on this thread!

Mike ..you designed your garden very well.
Thanks for sharing
 

Hi Tesorodearo, ha ha, yes a little marijuana would fit right in. Quite the operations growing that crop a short distance from my place in the Illinois Valley of southern Oregon.

As for a bees I’ve been thinking of starting a hive, primarily for pollination. There’s an awful lack of bees, of all kinds, in this area for many years. I understand a virus has decimated the bees numbers all over. I actually do quite a bit of hand pollination with a small artists paint brush. Tedious and time consuming, but pretty effective.

There is great satisfaction in seeing the bees return. It costs a bit to get started you will probably have $250 into getting started which will buy a bunch of honey! However they are real interesting creatures to learn about. I’ve been stung twice when I wasn’t working them. Standing around with a black tee shirt swatting the bee while it was just warning me to leave.
