Tomatoes, potatoes, and Tess--all growing!
We've now got about 150 tomato plants, representing about 50 different varieties, in the ground and doing well. The potatoes are also flourishing, have been hilled twice, and are just about ready to have some "new" potatoes plucked gingerly from the soil.
Tess, five months and always growing, still likes hanging out in the garden with us. She'll munch a peapod or two, or some escarole leaves, when she gets the chance. She particularly likes the kitchen compost pile next to the potato bed, but Perry keeps trying to keep her out of it by adding more and more fencing. But Tess, being a Border Collie and therefore smarter than both us put together, always finds a way in...when she's motivated to do so!
