Melon Patch Update

Warm weather and a few April showers have turned the garden into a blooming melon and cotton patch. Our sugar baby watermelon vines are bursting with blooms and even a few nicely growing melons.

The new sweet potato bare roots arrived a few days early and are taking root in the mounded rows that were waiting for them and the red foliated cotton plant is rising above the melon patch.

We closed out our winter growing cabbage with the harvest of 2 nicely red heads.

Take a peek around the garden with a few pictures from this morning.......
