I have been thoroughly enjoying my time at Squash Blossom Farm and have recently been delighting in the bounty of the garden. It is my first time working on a farm during the spring/summer rather than fall/winter and so I can finally experience the long-term fruits of my labors!
 |
| The cherries our tree produces are incredibly picturesque, especially when compared with my weeding hand. |
 |
| Lunchtime class. |
 |
| Can you find the beets and carrots? |
 |
| What glory! They can finally see the sun! |
 |
| Beans we planted roughly 3 weeks ago, growing strong. |
 |
| Some of our beautiful harvest for the pizza party we had this weekend. (Asparagus and Nasturtiums) |
 |
| The cabbage I planted at the beginning of my internship. |
 |
| Brussel sprouts I planted when I first started this internship. |
 |
| The fire I started to ready the oven for the pizza-party-pizzas. |
 |
| Lettuce I planted when first I arrived. |
 |
| The aforementioned tree bearing seemingly endless amounts of beautiful fruits. |
It's quite a special feeling walking through the garden seeing your plants thriving; fills you with confidence and admiration.
I hope all of you are enjoying your own summer bounties on this summer solstice as well! Start preserving those bounties as the days will start to wane again!
