in the year so I’m so excited to show
you what’s going on in the garden so
let’s get started

to this year I grew purple cauliflower
for the first time and it is so much fun
they are surprisingly easy to grow and
they are stunning and they do taste
exactly the same as white cauliflower
but it’s really fun to see this growing
in the

cauliflower is just absolutely

Garden we’re starting off with some
vernaculus and I’ve got some gorgeous
kale this kale was the tastiest crop
I’ve ever grown I’ve shared a lot of it
with my friends and family and
everyone’s been enjoying
it and here we have some ground cherries
or golden berries whatever you may want
to call it these are also super tasty
very low maintenance and some volunteer

quats and these are some onions that are
bulbing

borage the bees love
these and we have some dragon

that is going to seed and it’s all going
to come

to be coming down these are the sugar
snap peas that are at the end of the
season for them so they’re dying back I
am going to collect the rest of the pea
pods that are left on these
plants look at this ronculus the little
pink stripes are so
pretty this is an eggplant a pink tongue
eggplant one of my favorites and it
survived the winter I didn’t cut it back
at all I just let it be and it actually
did pretty well through the winter and
we have some fruits already forming and
right now we’re in April so this is
really early for them to be forming
fruits I’m really happy about
this oh my gosh you guys look at this
beauty this is the Flemish antique Poppy
and it is stunning just look at the size
of these flowers oh my

gorgeous they are so tall and have so
many different colors and
variations and some more lar spur just

have been picking the pods
clean so all this right here will be
taken down and cleaned
