Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries, and Rhubarb.

Posted by on Jul 03, 2010

All this sunny weather has done wonders for my vegetable garden. I’ve been eating strawberries by the handful, they’re so big and juicy, and perfect with a glass of chilled wine in the evening. The Gooseberries are nearly ready for picking, however, the Raspberries, and blackberries have a little way to go. That said I did get to eat a few Raspberries with my ice cream today.

In fact, everything is doing well, from the potatoes to the Onions, here’s some pictures from the garden.
