Well, it’s not a huge deal, but this week I got the first apricots off of the Bleinham apricot trees I planted last year. They are absolutely the best apricots I have ever eaten, I only wish there were more. Also, I harvested my first Japanese cucumber, which was sweet and delicious!

Some happy news: my non-gardener neighbor was inspired by my home garden to plant his own tomatoes this year. Inner glee.

Good news!  Today marks the opening of a local produce stand and store bringing some traditionally-grown but mostly organic produce to south Alabama!  This farmer is growing his own crops sustainably and is a member of a larger cooperative of 14 farms in AL, GA and FL.  He is also going to start selling shares in a CSA!  We’re SO excited to be able to eat more local and sustainably grown produce!
