Hooray for June

Last week it rained, this week is slated to be sunny.  Everything is growing like gangbusters.  This means more work for the garden gnomes.  But they seem to be up for it.

The herb garden is probably my favorite thing at the moment.  The honey bees are going crazy in the thyme flowers.  I'm also particularly enjoying the snow peas with their yellow pods and dark purple flowers -- a new variety for us this year. 

I can't get enough of the garden this time of year.  Everyday plants are taller -- invasives included (grrrr). But the good news is something new opens its bloom almost every day. And now our strawberry harvest has begun.  Farmers market season starts next week.  Our CSA deliveries begin shortly too. Yeah, for the growing!
