Hello, and greetings to all gardeners from around the world.Hope all of you are doing well and working hard in the garden to get some goodies for the kitchen. greeting to the beautiful community and host riverflows@riverflows.
Here in Norway early summer started sunshiny days but nights are still cool. whatever was in the ground didn't show up yet.
After coming back from India the garden was messed with weeds and it was so much work couldn't think to take photos anyway the garden is clean but weeds still coming up. few glimpses of the garden and the wildflowers here. And after that, we will take on a trip to our friend's garden in India which we visit before coming back.

Long beans. when it is tender they used it as a side dish for lunch or dinner. I got some from them and I made the easy vegan recipe in the #Plantpower community But mostly they wait until beans form and dried them, stored and use beans for a whole year.

This is the way in the village people do farming and it is just for family (around 8-10 members) use for a year. People are generous to share a few things no questions asked.
