Welcome to our nano piece of paradise!
This is essentially a creative photo blog plus few words. It is about Sandra and Denny's gardens and surrounds. My granddaughter Adelyn calls me "Poppop", hence the blog name. We try to add new images once a week. Older posts are archived at page bottom. Click an image to enlarge. We're having fun. Please! Enjoy!

Earth Abides With a Bounty of Booty !

Still very dry. Without watering, this garden would be toast. Even tough weeds are withering! We use soaker hoses to water locally and efficiently just around the "chosen" crops. Right now it's hard to keep up with the zucchini and yellow squash, even as we give it away. Eating peppers, cukes, onion thin-ings, and TOMATOES! The first fruit are pictured here, and the first DO taste sweeter. The other good news is that the garlic has been dug! Looks great. Twas a good garlic year... and now on to storage and the kitchen! Just finishing last year's supply, so the timing is perfect.
