Tomatoes as of last week (I think). The Cherry 100s are in front there, the Red Beefsteak are to the right and behind on the left as well.
Can anyone say “fried green tomatoes?”
Watermelon!
The blackberries are going crazy; we’ve already had to prune them a bit. We are having a bit of trouble with our squash as we don’t seem to have enough bees or wasps or other pollinators. So we will see what happens. The okra took off over the weekend, but I have not captured them on film yet. The peppers are finally taking off for us as well. We thought we had lost the peppers to some pests, but they have fought back and are now doing really well. The carrots, notsomuch. :(
Remember my Good Bad post? More along those lines tomorrow.
I love your set up with the raised beds and the supports for your toms.
The squash bugs killed my zuchinni and then a storm flattened the tomatos and corn, but I think we’ve salvaged them somewhat.

Sheena,
With those pieces of jute holding up the tomato plants, I call it the “tomato harp.”
