Summer Garden Update

Summer Garden Update, the latest episode of “Late Bloomer” reveals a front yard that’s loaded with food plants. The parkway exploded from “Planting a Parkway Food Forest.” From corn and quinoa, to tomatoes, Kabocha squash, tomatillo and beans, there’s lots going on in early July.

Three years of soil building, turning my hard clay soil into productive, rich compost has certainly helped turn this late bloomer gardener into one with a green thumb. At least, that’s what my neighbors tell me! You can order seed for these popular French fillet beans here.
