Update from the Moody Family

The Moody family visited the HME garden on Saturday, August 24th in the afternoon.  The weather was perfect with blue skies and sun.  We spent a little over an hour and did a lot of weeding.  In particular we went 
around some of the watermelon, squash, carrots, a few rows of corn, tomatoes, and reclaimed about a row of strawberries.  We repositioned one tomato cage.  It looks like some of the corn has broken.  Perhaps it 
was caused by winds, as we lost almost 100 corn stalks in our own garden one year from wind.The peppers looks great.  Ella picked one small carrot.
Its a beautiful garden.  It could use more weeding around the strawberries.  First year won't produce many berries but if kept weeded they will produce well next year.

Message from the Neupert Family

Here's how the food forest is going...we picked a cucumber, zucchini and one cherry tomato which Joelee ate right there and said was delicious!!! We noticed a carrot peeking out of the ground, a pumpkin on it's way to being a jack-o-lantern, quite a few adorable tiny watermelon...the cucumbers, peppers and squash should be ready very soon, they just need to grow a 
little bit more...there's quite a few green tomato's too!!!

Update from Ms. Farwell

It's my last summer working day until the end of August, so I decided to take a stroll through the garden before I left...it's amazing to see how much everything has grown since those days of planting back in May!

 Spotted a tiny watermelon starting to grow.

Many of the pepper plants have some small peppers growing on them.  

Can't wait till these are ready to be picked!

Hard to see from my cell phone picture, but some neighboring chickens were nearby to keep me company.

I didn't see anything ready to be picked yet, but I'm sure very soon we will be able to harvest some veggies!
