Gifts from our Garden...

We planted a vegetable garden in our little garden box over the spring. We have been blessed by many yummy fruits and vegetables over the late spring and summer. We have had radishes, beetroot, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, okra, cucumbers, cantaloupe (spanspek in South Africa) and watermelon. It's been awesome to be able to grow our own food! :)

We first planted two rows of radishes.

They were delicious!

Our homegrown beetroot.

The vegetable patch in late-June.

Bell peppers growing in buckets.

Our carrots were a success.

Cucumbers - yum!

One of the first spanspeks.

It was one of the best melons I've ever tasted!

Tomatoes!

Excited boy!

Early morning dew forms a pretty pattern around the edge of this leaf.
