garden-herbs-1

Each Friday, I let you have a peek into my garden. This is the first year that my garden has been progressing in such clear and certain order, and I am so excited to share it.

This week, I really wanted to show you the beginnings of blueberries that appeared on the blueberry bushes, promise of berries to come. I wanted to show you the leaves on the apple trees, which suddenly appeared last weekend. And the broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and spinach have been maturing. I wanted to show you the new addition to the garden: a small pepper plant that hasn’t yet distinguished itself. And my very big rosemary plant that I’ve already clipped from to season a roast … I wanted you to see that too.

But it rained today. Not all day, but just enough that every time I went to take more photos, I feared for my camera. So I didn’t. Instead. I snapped just the one photo you see, of my herb container garden on the back porch. Inside is thyme, basil and sage … I can’t wait to eat those too.

As for the crate? Snapple used it in a press kit they sent me. And I loved that I could so easily repurpose it. I would hate for all that wood to go to waste.

Next week? More photos. Lots. I promise.
