Back to the Garden

With hopes of a bountiful crop, we have put in a garden. The tiny lettuce seeds have sprouted and almost look like lettuce...but not yet ready to be a salad.
There are little bitty squash, with the blossom just getting ready to open.
The tomato plants have small yellow blooms with a promise of bushels of red ripe tomatoes.
I'm trying to remember if I still have canning jars in the attic to process our harvest.
The melon seeds...watermelon and cantaloupe, at this point they look a like, are just now getting started.
We're not calling it a recession garden...
it's a "Hope Garden"
