In The Garden

 Today we spent the day in the garden.  Travis actually dug out a new one, filling it with grape vines!  This whole wine making thing he's gotten into may be getting out of hand...  good thing we both love the stuff!  I moved a bunch of my perennials around, I want to fill my side of the house garden with strawberries so the flowers had to go.  My sister in law took a few, my neighbour a few, and the rest I moved to other places around the house. 
 freshly planted grape vines

My vegetable garden is looking the best it ever has!  Things are starting to get dry here so Trav used all the lawn clippings as a mulch to keep the moisture where we want it.

 


Last but not least, our raspberries are finally producing!  We should get a really decent crop this year which I am really looking forward to, we only planted the canes 3 years ago.

So our little yard is slowly but surely becoming as much of a food producing place as it is a play place.  It may not be our dream acreage but I'm not complaining!
