The first big day in the garden since planting is starting the garlic harvest. This row will fill that bushel basket soon.
Then the garlic is trimmed and put into an old baby gate for drying which will take a couple of weeks.
The next row of garlic waiting to leave the ground.
Some of the cherry tomatoes are starting to produce fruit. We’ll probably be eating fresh cherry tomatoes by mid-July.
The dill, which is self-seeding every year has already grown into monster plants of 3.5-4 feet tall.
Dill flowers on thr left, mint flowers on the right. It’s nice having fresh mint for drinks and sauces. With the dill, I’ll probably start collecting leaves for drying and let the slower heads go to seed.
More later…
Michael's Place 
I gave up two years ago. There are just TOO many animals in my triangle (Packard, Eisenhower, Stone School): deer of course, but also groundhogs, skunks, moles, rabbits, squirrels… some of which cannot be kept out by fences. So now the fence is gone and the grow-area is returned to grass. I do still have herb containers by the kitchen door on the stoop and two bell pepper plants in a raised container (animals don’t like them), plus what I think is some garlic gone wild.
