Photos of the Garden, early August 2012

 I realize that when I began blogging I didn't have a digital camera set-up yet.  So, all of the images I was using were photos that I had taken with my manual "old school" camera, that were then developed, then I took the photo disk they gave me, and loaded it onto the computer.  It was a longer process from shot taken to up on the computer then the current direct load of the digital camera.  That being said, I never got around to posting photos of the garden!  Which for those of you who have not biked your way over here, or had pizza in the brick oven, or been able to drive by- you do not know what the heck Possibilitarian Garden really looks like!  Of course, a photo doesn't give you the full experience of being in space, but this will have to do.

Here is Possibilitarian Garden mid-August 2012:

First the Pumpkin Patch
which is a new bed located at the front of the lot, street side, next to our house 
& in front of the greenhouse:






The view from the Back of the Lot looking out towards the street.  Our house is on the right, where the greenhouse is attached:

the wild tomato village (a few different varieties) with basil, peppers, nettles and beans.

dry black beans growing in the backyard beds (mostly for nitrogen fixing needs)

glorious borage, red cabbage, sage, bee balm and lavender.  
A real jungle currently in the backyard beds.

AND THAT'S IT FOR NOW!
