All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

Our peas and beans are really starting to stretch and climb after some recent rains and warm days, which is always very exciting. However, our purple flowering raspberries have started showing off and they took my breath away.

What's growing on with you all?

Alt text: an image of various peppers (and one tomato) on a small wooden plate. There are small green peppers, small red peppers, a large curved cayenne, a small bell pepper, and two medium sized green peppers, either anaheim or poblano I don't know I'd have to check. The red peppers are starting to dry.


I done grew me a garden on my balcony ma! This isn't all I've harvested this season either, wife has turned my cayennes into a hot sauce already, and the red peppers you see here were turned into a hot-paste-base... thing! And my tomato plant keeps giving me fat and juicy bois every week or so. Nothing crazy, just a big red one on my balcony for wife to cut up and enjoy. I personally hate them, but c'est la vest and an alligator chest, as they say.

There's catnip and pumpkins and sunflowers I've grown from seed, and mint and basil and, man, I love having this little garden out there so much :)

You're crushing it! Hearing how happy this garden is making you just fills my heart, and these photos make my mouth water
