Still pretty green now. Got a late start on everything because of the weather--80 degrees one day in April, hard frost the next night. I had to replant tomatoes and peppers 3 times, even with covering them.

Have blooms on the watermelons and cantaloupes now. Have picked some itsy bitsy strawberries and raspberries that were fairly tasty.

That's a good pie combo! Our beans are almost big enough to start picking. Croney Jul 2020 #13
