Bees and Peas

See bee with yellow pollen just right  of center on landing board

We watch with mixed gratitude and trepidation as we leave the rainiest May on record. June is also pretty soggy so far. We've enjoyed lettuce, braising greens, green garlic, garlic scapes, cilantro, sorrel, mint, and other herbs. The pod peas Marni planted in March are ready, with the snow peas in full blossom.

The heat lovers are just stalled. There are signs of promise in the fruit trees: cherries, peaches, pears, gooseberries, arona berries.

Beets and carrots, leeks and onions, cucumbers and squashes to come.
