Kite festival- the largest Octopus kite debut (maybe in the world or something?)
Days of skating
The harvest was bountiful this year- the ability to grow A LOT of food in your backyard is always an inspiration for my general life. The whole seed-plant-food process makes you examine life on a holistic vibe.
Radish seeds (above) are a hybrid from my Dad's yellow turnip and purple stripped radishes. This is the first time growing them out to seed-- which I have a lot of -thanks to the amazing seed creating abilities of this particular gem of a plant! Let me know if you would like some seeds--I have many to give away. They taste great and are really pretty. I believe that they would also work in a cold-frame type thing for my fellow four-season growers.
These wondrous beauties are Red Runner beans A.K.A Magic Beans. They have really delicate, bright red blossoms that morph into huge bean pods with purple/fuchsia beans. Awesome. I have a garden idea planned out for the future that will focus on only psychedelic looking plants/flowers. Think of passion flowers, red runner beans, stripped purple carrots, bright yellow beets......
more to come..
