As always happens at this time of year, I look back and think of all the projects I wanted to accomplish in the forest garden over the summer.
I usually look back with a regret. This year not so much. It’s not that I accomplished all those projects, but I did accomplish some and I did a lot of gardening in comparison to previous years.
I think a part of my satisfaction this year, comes from the fact that we have actually used a lot of the produce from the forest garden. We have been making iced tea from this mint all summer in place of Kool-Aid.
The chickens have been keeping us in eggs as well.
For the first time ever, I had success with potatoes.
And the flowers this year, have been amazing.
