Back to the Garden

It's been a week or so since I last posted, unfortunately we have been very busy with tasks in the garden. We've managed to get weeds pulled on our main vegetable beds, and we are currently in the process of adding a thick mulch underneath. I'm hoping that the mulch will help reduce the need for irrigation as we have been in drought conditions here for the past 10-12 years. We've harvested an amazing amount of cucumbers this season, especially given the excessive heat and overactive weeds. We have 2 crisper drawers full in the fridge plus the shelf above, time to make some tasty pickles! We've also harvested a good bit of zucchini, which we have cut into matchstick size pieces, steamed or sauteed-delicious!
