June Garden report, part 2

I took some photos on Thursday.
Here's my plot with pole beans.

And the promising strawberries...

Here are my neighbors' zucchinis, transplanted on or before the May 11 workday...

And here's mine, planted five weeks later.

A real plus at the Stony Point garden is the area planted for produce to be delivered to FISH Santa Rosa. These are in 12' x 12' plots, and feature what's popular, what's healthful, and what's culturally appropriate.

The tomatoes, kale, and tomatillos are from transplants on May 11, the beets and other greens we direct seeded. The sunflowers are volunteers. Community gardens that have been in existence for several years are filled with volunteer plants, not to mention weeds.

And one more shot. The fence around the garden is softened with many rose bushes. They are a bit past their prime blooming time now, but here's one beauty.
