Great garden Therese! There's lots of fresh produce to feed the family .... we like corn too :)

God Bless,

Wow, Therese, that looks *great*! Ours didn't look that neat all this year (nothing like getting it all tilled up and planted, and then getting rain...drying out for a couple of days...and then more rain.
My soil here is solid clay (we're working on that, but still), so it doesn't dry out quickly...and some areas are really awful. It repeated like that all summer long. I would be out there trying to harvest the tomatoes and peppers, thinking I needed a pith helmet and a machete!

But it looks like you've done a great job of getting everything in, and well planted. I don't think that that is a ridiculous amount of corn, by the way, because I know how much we can go through, and we've got smaller/fewer people to feed than you do! :-) Good job!

Wow, your garden looks so nice and healthy! The frost is settling in this week for us - I miss these summer scenes! Hope you and baby are feeling well :)

Fantastic! Yummy, yummy, veggies! I bet the kids really enjoy tending the garden as well. :)

God bless!

Wow! It's neat (and a little weird) to see everything growing there, on the other side of the world, while things are being harvested and are wilting and dying here during the autumn.

What an amazing world God created!

Our season is obviously much later than yours, as we can't put our corn and tomatoes in until after the frosts - not sure that they have finished yet.

To think that God created all things for food just for us astounds me!

Hmmm. Now I fancy a salad!
