SFG First Fruits--A Pictorial

Remember when we divided the garden into 16 squares?
And we carefully selected and planted the crops?
And we watered them from the rain barrel?
And we went away for a week and the garden still grew?
Until it became the amazing source of food and wonder that it is today.
Even the SLD sits in awe.  Here then is a dog's eye view:
of the sweet peppers,

and the hot peppers,

and the marigolds,

and the pumpkins (which, yes, are growing on the neighbor's side of the fence),

and the carrots,

and the onions (both of them) which, okay, may be less than awe-inspiring.
The cherry tomatoes, however, are so glorious that they deserve their own post.

Although something is eating the marigolds, to me they are only a source of wonder--not food.
