However, even in the lesser than usual bounty of my garden and orchard, there is still some small harvest. There is nothing like growing your own food…it's something that brings me tremendous joy! I'm very alive whilst in my garden. And for the first year I was able to pick apples off my Rhode Island Green heirloom tree…even the Fuji is bearing fruit…yay!
So not so bad I think….actually it turned out to be a good day in the garden for me!

| Chicken & Duck Eggs, Anaheim & Jalapeno Pepper, Tomatoes (black cherry, black krim, and Juliet, Tomatillo, Lemon Cukes and a Potato I forgot I planted! |
 |
| Rhode Island Green Heirloom….made applesauce |

| Peach jam (okay, not from my orchard this year..but bought at the local farmers market..still makes amazing jam! |
 |
| Tomatillo, Jalapeño, plum jam… a favorite around here and my own recipe! |
 |
| The back corner of the orchard and the back gate into the duck/chicken pen. Champagne grapes growing along upper trellis with morning glory taking over…and a side peek on the left of my massive fig tree. |
Enjoy the rest of your summer and the bounty it may bring!…xox juner
