Esme's 'first day of school rose'

The small fenced-in garden coming along.

Mouse cat is out there in the background.
Even the squash hills that were not producing yesterday are now showing signs of life.

 Misha dog checks out the end of the 'planted' area of the west field.

The corn and squash coming up there are nearly microscopic - but they are there.

Green tops of radishes pulled earlier in the other garden.

 

Now, with water run out there we will be thinking of planting

more low-maintenance things (like the field corn seed saved from last year)
