We have tomatoes!!!!
(look at them! They're so cute!!)
Our garden this year has been a struggle. The suspected reasons why our garden didn't do well: we're new to gardening, our soil is terrible and we haven't seen many pollinators. We had a terrible germination rate. Of the ones that sprouted fewer survived. Out of 30 tomatoes we saved 4, now only 3 (one was a causality of hurricane Irma). A couple weeks ago I saw bees!!! Then a week ago a little tomato starting to grow! Now we have 3 all on the same plant. I have no idea if our growing season will allow them to reach maturity but here's to hoping.

The cucumbers are still producing. The pickle worms are still around but I have managed to keep up with them by checking a few leaves every day and killing the ones I see. We have still lost some cucumbers but I just chop those up and feed them to the ducks. They LOVE them!
