In the good old summertime

       It has been a typical northern NY transition from winter to spring to summer all in about 2 weeks.   From winter coat weather in mid May to sweltering last weekend to cool and wet weather for the last week, we have had it all.

      In the garden, the radishes and arugula appreciate the cool, wet conditions, but the heat lovers, including summer squash, peppers and tomatoes have stalled.   The garlic is beginning to scape and the leaf lettuces are thriving.  Maggie Mae has rediscovered her affinity for broccoli and carrots, so chances are there won't much harvested except by her.  The beets and swiss chard are also doing well.   All in all, the gardens are doing well, despite the weather.
