July 2013 Garden Update

 We're not doing much with our garden right now other than watering & harvesting.  In late June we did plant zucchini & cucumber in a new bed Mark built.  Our original bed is busy producing all sorts of tasty food.  The lettuce all bolted but we're still getting kale along with some carrots (including a funny double rooted one (above), onions, sugar snap peas & Sun Gold tomatoes.

Our potato plants were out of control for awhile and I was really disappointed as it didn't seem that they ever flowered as I expected.  I was sure they hadn't ever produced any potatoes when the plants started to die back.  I finally decided to dig them up and see.  Turns out there were lots of potatoes growing in one 16"x16" square.  Yum!
