Early July update

We have had lots and lots of rain lately.  So far, the plants are doing well, for the most part.  Some of the tomato plants are now taller than I am.  The squash seem to have a problem with the flowers falling off early.  Otherwise, everything seems to be growing well with no signs of pests or illness. 

We are starting to get baby watermelons and winter squash.  Last week, we ate our first summer squash from the garden - very good.

This is the first year that I have grown corn and been successful.  It is exciting to see the plants come along.
