The Last of the Garden 2013

Here in the Poconos, the first frost arrived ending the gardening season for 2013. It was sad to pull off the last of the vegetables from the vines and plants.

Gardening – The Good vs. The Bad

Well, every year there are some things that do well in the garden and some things that just don’t! Too much sun verses too much rain verses the bugs! Who will win?
