More from the garden

food, gardening

Homegrown tomatoes, m-m good.

If you haven’t grown your own, you’ll just have to go to a farmer’s market or a roadside stand and get some yummy tomatoes. It may be a couple of weeks before the real harvest comes in, but they are well worth the wait.

I bought my plants with a couple of blossoms on, so they had a head start. I won’t be canning any. I just like to munch them fresh off the vine.

A garden can be in a flowerpot so maybe next season you’ll grow your own tomato plant. Harvesting from there is easy.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

What’s growing?

My little garden has a couple of big plants.

Zucchini fried in a bit of butter was just right for supper.

A trip to Wagner’s Market

food, gardening, Wisconsin

If you look close, you can see the white honey on the right of this photo, about an inch down from the top.

After walking around outside, I found my honey inside and then walked around the store. There’s quite a selection of jams, jellies, pickles, and more. Tomorrow I’ll show you the jars I brought home.

This location is on the southeast corner of the 54-47 intersection. You can’t miss Wagner’s Market.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

A garden gift for me

gardening, Sunnybook Farm, Susan

I was just going for a ride with Rebecca and Andy today. The destination was the Cottage Garden Farm West of Waupaca on 54.

To my surprise, Rebecca decided I needed another garden spinner. She said the choice was mine.

I could have had a colorful one and/or a larger one, but this is the one I chose.

I am very happy, and very thankful, too.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

A little backyard gardening

gardening, Susan

I have numerous pairs of gardening gloves hidden around the farm. Too bad I forget to use them.

At least my hands are washable. It’s the gunk under my fingernails that is so tough to get clean.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
