Annie One of my favorite things about having a veg garden is watching it evolve throughout the growing season. We are now in the last stretch of summer and some veggies are thriving in this dry, unseasonably warm weather, and some are dying out. Either way, I’m rolling with it and looking forward to my fall garden coming to fruition (I’ll see you soon, homegrown lettuce!). Flip through the slideshow and check out the highlights!
Sweet potatoes gone WILD! I sure hope there are some big ones buried under all this. 
Fall brassicas—bok choy, cabbage, and more—recovering from a pretty bad chicken attack. There are some little lettuce seedlings coming up also! 
SO. CUTE. Sugar Baby watermelons! 
The okra is starting to look a little past it prime, but still a thing of beauty. 
Biquinho peppers—red *and* yellow—coming on STRONG! 
We emptied the compost this weekend and distributed among the garden beds. Now we start a new one for fall. Bring on the garden debris and leaves!! 
Massive leeks! 
First carrot harvest of the year! Check out those legs, ha! 
Red noodle beans taking over the garden archway. The chickens’ favorite new hangout. 
Long Island Cheese winter squash growing up into the tomatoes. Can’t wait to try this variety—it’s new to me!
