Back at the Garden

After the long weekend for Independence Day, we spent Monday thoroughly pulling weeds to keep the garden under control.  We have seen huge and rapid growth in a very short time span quite recently, and it is looking to be a great harvest later this summer and fall!  Here are some photos of the garden at the end of the day.
 Flowers growing well
 Our raised beds, weed free and growing strong
 The potatoes have become quite large

 The end of the potato bed, with new potatoes, peas, and tomatoes
 The garlic bed, without weeds and with a new layer of hay
 The beans we planted just last week already sprouting
 "Vermont Cranberry Dry Beans"
 Our carrot bed with a fresh layer of hay to keep the weeds down
 The corn bed is now connected to the tomato and pea fences to control weeds
 The peas looking strong

 Some of our blueberries have turned blue!
Almost ready to pick!
