A Look at the Potager in Mid June

We’ve had a lot of rain lately but yesterday was a beautiful warm and breezy day.

In the front of the potager lavender and salvia are blooming.

The garden is growing so well this year.  We’ve already had a wonderful sweet and spicy radish harvest. Now they’re going to seed.

Viewed from the house the crops are easy to see.

The French filet beans are flowering which means actual beans aren’t far off.

The French filet beans in the foreground have begun to flower.

Cucumbers are climbing the trellis.

Charlie tells me little cucumbers are on the vines.

And my sunflowers are about knee high.

The bright line of plants vertically in the middle of the photo are sunflowers.

Last year they were sparse but it looks like they all came up this year.

The bunching onions planted around the tomato plants (in the right corner) are ready to eat.

We still have a lot of landscaping to do but the vegetable garden is progressing.

How do you balance working inside and outside? Which do you prefer?
