This is the okra from last week - we had to put some organic powder stuff on it to get the aphids and ants off it. This week we saw that that ants were gone and the ladybugs were taking care of the aphids. Good ladybugs. :)
Beans - not sure what kind
My Fall front yard decoration from last year is now working in the garden.
Rain Water Run-Off Hose
TRENCHES BEFORE THEY ARE COVERED BACK UP WITH DIRT
Today we worked on the overflow system for the two rain barrels we have hooked up to the gutters on the barn. For now, we have decided to just dig a trench and run some plastic 6 inch hose to the ditch in the woods to keep the runoff away from the barn. The barrels fill up so fast when it rains. Our goal is to purchase a big water storage tank and fill it with the rain barrel overflow, then use that water for the garden drip hoses.
The garden looks good, did some weeding today and no need to water since it rained like crazy this past week. The 3 row fencing seems to be working to keep the deer out.
