A scene from my garden as I strolled through, harvesting some breakfast berries this morning.

One of my experiments this year was installing 16’ cattle panels that I bent into arched trellises between raised beds. Cucumbers, pumpkins, beans, snow peas, grapes, clematis, and morning glories climb them in various parts of my garden. We also hung a hummingbird feeder, and the hummers seem to love the placement. They have easy access to the feeder, protection from above, and lots of flowers blooming from early morning until late at night.

A round, green pumpkin hangs alongside clusters of long, green beans on a vine surrounded by lush foliage.
