fall garden update!! everything i planted has grown! kale, broccoli, spinach, fava beans. i even had a little spinach harvest yesterday that was added to our brunch. 🌱some folks might remember my self-seeded arugula ground cover this spring; now we have nasturtium doing the same thing! 😆
four wooden garden beds, dusted with yellow fallen leaves. the beds have kale, spinach, broccoli, fava beans, elephant garlic, and holding-on marigolds. marigolds and fava beans sprouting 6” out of the ground bb nasturtium growing on the ground next to a garden bed backyard adorned with autumn shades of red, yellow, orange leaves on landscaping.

kale & broccoli starts, thyme, established strawberry, and a tomato plant that should really be pulled this week! 🌱 it’s going to be warm this week so i’m really hoping it’ll give these new babies a boost before it cools off again.
