Hi! Just a quick update….the city’s of Claremore Planning Commission passed the new ordinance that allows community gardens to be built under any type of zone.

I’d like to introduce Aaron and Alison. They have a small garden they are growing this summer and selling the produce here at our greenhouses.

A few weeks of sunshine and some TLC and they should perk …

So far so good…the tomatoes are still alive and looking good. I even have a few little tomatoes. Some of the other plants are struggling. The eggplants are looking real bad and the peppers are hanging in there. Of course, the weeds are great!! The girls and I ate some yummy snap peas this morning …
I realized after it was posted that the pictures in the former blog did not really match up with the descriptions. Sorry. Let’s chalk it down to feeling so crazy Friday while I watched the garden float away. I am posting pictures of the garden in the aftermath. The plants themselves are still there, but …
Well, I guess part of gardening and farming is dealing with the whims of nature. I am posting pictures of my garden. You can see the white shed far in the back right of the picture and the brown smudges to the left of that, those are my raised beds. The rest is water which …
