This is our mid summer mark - the middle of July - it froze here a couple of weeks ago and our first frost of the fall can be anytime in September. I wanted to take some pictures of the yard at the mid summer point.
Back Fence Area
This area used to have a huge wood pile and this bush grew up in the front of it. We moved the wood pile and had this little hidden spot. It was dubbed "The Thinking Spot." The next picture shows the little hidden alcove.
This is next to the thinking spot - it is the medicinal garden.
A Long Shot of the Cutting Garden
Here are a few of the flowers blooming in the Cutting Garden

THis is the view looking from the side yard to the southThe Honeysuckle is blooming! Our Veggie Garden
Sorry for the weeds - I work on the yard one week and the garden the next -
the garden is next week.
These are the tomatoes - they love being next to this fence. We have such cool nights the tires help to keep them warmer so they do much better. These are the ghords and the beans
These are the raspberries
These are the seed plants - beets, carrots, radishes, lettuce
More squash Corn starting to pop!
Entry Area
FRONT OF HOUSE
This is the center of the house. It is the "Hosta Bed" On the left side is the part I just did this spring and it is growing nicely. See photo below. The next photo is the right side which I haven't started - this pix is for me to study next winter so I can make my spring plans. These pictures show the long view of the "Hosta Bed" area.

Your garden looks amazing! So beautiful!
Wow - your garden looks fabulous. I've never heard of putting tires around the base of tomato plants. That is amazing. Your gardens look so lush and beautiful!
Loved your garden tour. Everthing looks amazing!
Must be hard to garden with such a short season. Everything certainly looks great now. Jean
Thanks for sharing the tip of using a tire to keep your tomatoes warm! It's always cooler in the Pacific Northwest so I will definitely take that into consideration next year!
