We are finally having summer!!! This season has been completely bizarre--until last week we've had almost no warm (70+) days and the rain keeps coming down. Some crops have loved the weather including the cabbage, lettuce, broccoli, and peas and we've had some of the biggest plants ever. But nearly everything is 1-2 weeks behind. It's August 1st and I've eaten less than 10 ripe blueberries! Sometimes the blueberry orchard is ready to pick at the Southside Social which happens on the 2nd weekend in July-it's been three weeks since the event and we haven't even picked one basket of berries yet.

But we can't really complain. The garden looks super great and we've had a wonderful time with our dedicated WWOOF crew. This current bunch are really fun and we've had a blast getting to know each other. They did some weeding this weekend and I took some photos after they were finished.
