June is a good time to plant hard squash and swiss chard which are both on our wanted list.

wonderful news about your efforts on that mean grass!! Thank you!

I will have a friend from out of town on Saturday, so I don't know if I can get her to work or stay long, but we will be there.

oh, yes, I can water Thursday.

my friend Andrea helped alot on Friday. she is hoping to come over lots more this summer since she is a teacher off for the summer.
we planted 4 sweet 100 tomatoes, cilantro, basil, bee balm, strawberry, oregano, garden sage and cleome.

Lots of things happening in our garden. Marie was here with a friend on Friday and they planted new things (tomatoes and other stuff) and harvested the garlic. You will find lots and lots of garlic drying on the fence for your kitchen.

And Constantine came over this afternoon and we dug out weeds like crazy. Last night I took the weed whacker and cut down the tall grass outside of the garden fence. And today I dug out a lot of that very stubborn grass on the north side of the garden. Constantine put his muscle into digging that stubborn grass out in the NW corner of the garden, including a lot of the grass and weeds that were overtaking the NW bed.
Thank you Constantine!

I forgot to mention that I'm going to be in Boulder, Colorado on Wed/Thurs/Friday this week attending a conference. Can anyone stop by and water those evenings?

What about a potluck dinner and some gardening this Saturday (6/6) at 6 PM? Sounds like an auspicious time for a gathering. 666.

Let me know -- and bring a friend!
