Lots of goodies in the garden today---veggies and flowers.
Today we picked some Zucchini and I made Zucchini Bars. All week we have been having sauted Zuchs with onion, garlic--all out of the garden.. Garlic won 1st place at the fair.. so here we have Cabbage, Zuchinni, Onion and an apple and behind that some Cucumbers.
I forgot to picture the beets. Bob is making Borsch tonight. He is a wonderful cook.
Here are some larger Zucchini--Plant a couple vines and you get tons of Zuchs

Our Chickens are helping by laying nice large eggs. We have so many we give them away.
The front garden is stuffed.

flowers, veggies and too many eggs! pretty sweet! :) my sis loves zuchs.
I want to eat at your house! I love all the colours in your garden.
Looks like you're having a great year with the garden. The sunflowers here are finally in full bloom.
Zounds, what a place you have! I've not seen any veggies like those for years! The ones in the store are merely pale imitations of these! And the flowers and the chickens ... and the eggs.
You've got the makings of a great "farmer's market."
A thoroughly enjoyable series of photos...love that planter. And the sunflowers.
Love all the photos. I like the giant zucchini - I cut them in quarters long ways - scoop out the seed then chop them in the food processor to make pickle relish - delish! Sometimes I quarter, de-seed and slice them up to make bread and butter pickles.
Congrats on the win at the fair! Ain't summer grand?
OH Wow---your yard must be awesome. Love all of your flowers, especially the sunflowers.. Bet the finches love those sunflowers.
Your veggies look great too. You will be canning and will have lots of veggies throughout the winter...
Our weather the past few days has been nice also...
Hugs,
Betsy
I would love to wander around in your yard and help you keep your figure by eating some of those neat veggies. Peace
My garden didn't do very well this year except for the onions and potatoes. Maybe I need to augment the soil in a different way come spring. I had lots of garlic last year, but this year it just kept dying off. - Margy
Love your place! Am jealous about all the fresh vegies.
Your vegetables look great! I have big zucchinis too, I make big pots of soup with ginger, turmeric, garlic and mushrooms. I'm going to make some cucumber soup too, blended and add spice, and sour cream or coconut milk. Your container garden looks fabulous, so varied and colorful. I live in sw Wa.
