Summer Harvest

It’s always fun to start summer. School ends, we can shed the coats and long sleeve shirts, schedules change (sometimes become more crowded) and family trips are just around the corner. Gardeners plant in expectation of reaping their goods in a couple months, be it flowers or good things to eat.

One thing we do in our backyard, is plant sunflowers. Not really so we can eat them but they are free bird food. We regularly see many different kinds of birds enjoying themselves on the seeds come August. I’ll try to catch a couple Gold Finches in the next day or two and post a picture. I’ll also have a picture of our corn. It’ just about ready to eat.
