The garden seems to me to be in "full bloom", but when I consider that we are only harvesting from a few number of the plants I am almost scared of what is yet to come! I think we are in trouble when the tomotos are ready....anyone know a good canner?! Look at what we have accomplished already this summer...
We have two local winners, Libby in Dacono & George in Firestone, who won free vegetables for their families for the summer. Congratulations Libby & George! We had a contest at the local fairs in June & July where they had to guess the number of black-eyed peas in the very large jug. They were the winners from the fairs and have already started to receive their vegetables.
We have also been able to provide the local food bank with the first round of vegetables. A lot of lettuce, arugula, spinich, summer squash, and zuchinni were given out.
We have been able to provide vegetables to many inidivuals/families through the local Senior Center.
We have been able to provide Children's House of Weld with a location to garden, a location to teach the children, and many vegetables for the children to try!
We have been able to eat many vegetables ourselves:)
Life is good at Brigit's Bounty!
