My Early Garden

My garden is tucked into 2 greenhouses, various raised boxes, and other beds here and there in our backyard landscaping. It has grown larger every year, as our desire and appreciation for fresh food has grown. Here's a look at some of what's growing right now.

Nine tomato plants, basil, and new this year, long beans on the trellis.

    Anita has a long background rooted in traditional handwork, and quiltmaking, which she still enjoys.

    But more often, these days, you'll find her digitizing patterns for the Statler Stitcher and other computerized longarm quilting machines. 
     
    Her summer days are spent in the garden and she loves finding new ways to prepare good veggie-based meals.
