As of today, all four varieties of tomato in our garden are changing color! We may only have two weeks left here, but they should be two very delicious weeks!

I probably won't be posting much till after we move (Aug. 14-15), but expect some pictures and updates afterwards...

I had no idea squash plants were evil creatures bent on taking over the world!



But I guess that shows how little I know. These squash plants are probably around 10 feet long, and when I tried to rearrange them this morning, I found that they were encroaching upon the road, most of the way through the next community garden plot (which fortunately is also one we're taking care of), and even climbing almost all the way down into the 6 or so foot creekbed behind.

There are even a few beautiful little squashies that might be big enough to harvest by the time we have to move:



And tons of tomatoes, growing in bunches like grapes on the vine (and starting to turn red):



And a few little peppers:



Plus tons of green beans every couple of days. Just a few things to be excited about before we leave!
