Our Veggie Garden - August

This is my favorite time for gardening - it's harvest time!

Our garden first planted:

Our garden in July:

We've had about 6-7 zucchinis and 2 yellow squash so far - they are just starting.  The cucumbers are exploding!

We planted too many tomatoes this year.  There is a jungle in there.  I think I'll have to learn how to can tomatoes for the winter.  I'm thinking pizza sauce for our Friday pizzas!

The peas are all done and were very loved.  The beets have already been picked and pickled!  The green beans have started and we just eat them steamed!

It's always amazing how quick things move in the garden!

Plus, my hydrangeas are about to burst!  Yeah!

And the holly hocks are awesome.  Just saying.

I'm getting together all of my favorite garden recipes and I can't wait to share.

How is your garden?
