This is a flower from a Red Maple tree...rare to see them before they fall on the ground and people call them debris...Funny how a flower becomes a mess and a plant becomes a weed, and an animal becomes a pest...Whoa, thats some walden pond stuff!!!

This is a bucket of wormcastings from my worm farm. The black or brown round spots you see are worm eggs. I plan on adding this to my garden during tilling and then the worms should hatch and grow in the garden and help do a live worm infusion of organic fertilizer and aeration!

My tomato sprouts turning into nice looking girls! I decided to only grow slicers this year and buy my canning tomatoes from the farmers market!

Mobile Strawberry tray. I wanted to start a patch of strawberries but I knew we were going to be moving. So, I figured the first few years I could get them started and transplant them one spring, and I will have mature, heavy producing plants the first year. (or 4th year technically.) in my next garden. This is a picture from the 1st summer, they will be 3 years old this spring, I'll get pics, they've grown so much!

Harvest season is in full swing in Oshkosh, WI. Squash, Zucchini, Cukes, Cherry Tomatoes, Heirloom, and Paste Tomatoes, Tomatillos, and some huge slicers for appetizers. My table is restocked every 2-3 days. Most likely going to be about 400 lbs of Tomatoes, 200 lbs of tomatillos, and my Cucumbers were decimated by the Cucumber beetle infected with a fungus, So I only jarred 15 quarts of pickles this year. Oh well, win some and you lose some.
