May 21 Garden

I took a few pictures this morning before the rain started of how the garden looks today.  In these bags we have different varieties of lettuce and kale. 


We have different peppers in these bags along with carrots, fingerling potatoes (we thought we'd try these and see if they grew; we put about 4 potatoes in the bag, which is the one on the right end in the back row, so it appears that they are going to grow okay) and different types of peppers (well, these are the only ones that grew when we started the seeds in the greenhouse) and a few bags of tomatoes (that we didn't hold out much hope for, which is why there are so many in the bag-we never expected them to make it).


Our first tomato:


Close up picture of the pear tree (no idea what we're going to do with all of these):


One of the yellow squash (it's about 2 inches long now):


Silver Queen corn (we didn't expect this to take off so well either and because of that, we stuck some seeds in the container along with the few plants that made it in the greenhouse and they just took off, so it's a bit crowded):
