Life in Tee Harbor, Alaska

Updated Garden Pictures

The garden is going so well - helps when the weather cooperates!  It has been warm and mostly sunny for almost two weeks now and the plants are just loving it!  I made a dessert the other night - Cherry Rhubarb Crisp - that turned out very good and used up some of our rhubarb and a jar of cherry pie filling that I made last summer.

We have started eating green onions - we will eat every other one so the rest can bulb and form onions for storing.  No sign of the root maggots yet - my fingers are crossed that the wood ash has kept them away...

Here are the Kennebec potatoes that I planted May 20.  I just hilled them up - filled around them with dirt last Friday.

Here are our Norkota Russet potatoes that I have in 5 of these potato bins.  These ones I planted May 28 and tonight I added the second row of boards and filled in with dirt.

The tomatoes are getting huge!  The stalks are getting nice and thick and look really healthy.  I put stakes up - some hardwood, some bamboo.  There are lots of little blossoms forming...

And...I have one tomato blossom that opened today!  It is one of the Stupice plants that will be going into the greenhouse when we get it finished...  It was started from seed on March 28.

Everything looks so lush and very healthy. You have achieved so much and are obviously a very good planner.

I can't wait to see more photos etc later on. Well done.
Blessings
