And I would dearly love to have something so beautiful in my yard... unfortunately with two cats and two small people, it&#39;s nearly impossible... this year our vege did not go so well - we lost our tomatoes and have since lost our bell peppers (it&#39;s winter here), our zucchini is struggling but the peas seem to be holding their own.ezri janehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06038874529924123803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-64650911335592858152010-07-01T11:33:06.152-04:002010-07-01T11:33:06.152-04:00Your garden is not only functional - it&#39;s beautiful as well! Mine is strictly functional, although I have plans to turn my smaller &#39;kitchen bed&#39; into a very pretty &#39;herb garden&#39; next year. Our garden is doing marvelously despite the torrential rain we&#39;ve had this year. I canned 22 quarts of green beans Monday from my very first picking. :0) <br /><br />I&#39;m curious as to what you do with all of your jalepenos? I have 4 plants that fruit profusely and supply me with enough peppers to make all the salsa we need (and we can go through salsa) and still have enough to dry. I love reading your blog and hearing about all of your adventures. Maybe you could do a post to share what you do with all of your veggies. Your French baguette recipe is my family&#39;s favorite!<br /><br />And to Butotnchief7 - we had a horrible problem with Japanese beetles until we discovered Milky Spore. It&#39;s natural, safe, and one application lasts from 3-5 years.Pamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08659490868053210396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-23974077939039793652010-07-01T08:41:17.647-04:002010-07-01T08:41:17.647-04:00I love your potager Angela! Wonderful! I&#39;m impressed you can get it to look that good with a little baby and two others to keep track of as well :)...what&#39;s my excuse for having such a sad looking garden this year??!! <br /><br />Have a great 4th of July!!!<br /><br />Hugs ~<br /><br />:) TTraceyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10658616882866429410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-13292855246630576902010-07-01T00:33:50.781-04:002010-07-01T00:33:50.781-04:00Hello from Kansas! May you have a super 4th of July.<br /><br />I don&#39;t have a garden this year...oops...wish I could say I did, but can&#39;t.<br /><br />Your Potager is lovely and it looks like you have a fantastic green thumb.<br /><br />These fresh produce always taste extra good coming from the garden. Happy eating!<br /><br />God bless,<br />d from homehavenDeannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08019741103496608961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-29208108762738141692010-07-01T00:29:18.927-04:002010-07-01T00:29:18.927-04:00I haven&#39;t had a garden in 3 years. I miss it so much. With the barn signed off we can begin to focus on the little yet important things like our potager. <br /><br />Thank you for such lovely pictures and inspiration. Since I don&#39;t have mine I feel better when I look at yours.<br /><br />Merci!<br /><br />Tamra<br />The Gilded BarnTamrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17836936539267296711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-22479508268723378022010-06-30T23:05:32.862-04:002010-06-30T23:05:32.862-04:00One day you will be blessed with the Farm of your dreams my dear friend.

How kind of someone to let you use their garden as well. <br />At the moment my garden is being attacked by something that eats leaves. My lettuces, silverbeet and potato&#39;s are now stalks. I have only managed to harvest some snowpea&#39;s so far, as well as herbs (it&#39;s winter here).<br />Thanks for your lovely blog,<br />Selina.Selinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06244703121100035540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-35987801348237184472010-06-30T18:58:13.455-04:002010-06-30T18:58:13.455-04:00It is usually feast or famine here when it comes to veggies. We live in a region where you can grow just about anything but my enemy is a funny looking creature called a bandicoot (native and protected together with the possums and bats that raid the fruit trees) I would love a potager but the bandicoot would think it an open invitation to come and party. Hence I have tall raised beds made from corrugated iron sides and netting over the salad bed - not pretty I know but these gardens are meant to feed us!<br />I have just put up a few pictures of my garden. I am now giving away mandarins!Ann at eightacresofedenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15524581927752695509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-15594659424555044432010-06-30T18:48:28.908-04:002010-06-30T18:48:28.908-04:00I have a timely solution to that rabbit problem through another blogger who posted recently on Lapin<br />http://uneviechic.blogspot.com/2010/06/lapin.htmlStephaniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09289348366926684135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-47820590296503221112010-06-30T18:27:43.068-04:002010-06-30T18:27:43.068-04:00it&#39;s funny how farmer macgregor appears<br />so much more sensible when one has<br />bunnies in one&#39;s own garden. :)myletterstoemilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17555607498974287844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-66493776383320335712010-06-30T18:06:32.005-04:002010-06-30T18:06:32.005-04:00I say you did a good job with the picture...I didn&#39;t even notice that there were two together! <br />Compared to my garden, yours looks fabulous. Rain everyday is not helping-I think my veggies are swimming in the dirt!<br />Thank goodness for the farmer&#39;s market! I keep putting on my gardening apron everyday though.<br />I just want some tomatoes as I refuse to pay the grocery store price for them!<br />Good Luck with yours ~<br />SarahMy Yellow Househttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09792091924132886602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18059024.post-18753843442971102762010-06-30T15:34:03.146-04:002010-06-30T15:34:03.146-04:00Our area is having too much rain! Water grass everywhere, japanese beetles eating things and too many baseball games to catch with the grandson so the garden suffers.

I *may* get lucky with the one surviving bell pepper, but I&#39;m not holding my breath.<br /><br />I think it&#39;s just too stinkin&#39; hot here, and I may have selected an area that gets too much sun. <br /><br />Ah well...if at first you don&#39;t succeed - go to the farmer&#39;s market and try again next year.Lisa @ Another Day Todayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09097137349668300486noreply@blogger.com
