Teenagers!

Our garden has really taken off. It is pretty impressive to see a garden that last year really struggled, come into its own: whether through our experience, both in gardening and working together,  the benefit of what happens to soil in its second year of gardening, or the better weather What I am most impressed by (so far) are the onions, which barely grew last year, and this year are strong and already quite large.
