Charlotte, Garden, and Shed

It's been hot!! So Charlotte and I have hit the beach a few times already.
The little artist, concentrating hard:

These are our garden beds that we put in last year - spring crops, like peas and arugula, are doing well in the back bed and the herbs are coming back great in the front. Also some summer crops have gone in.
And here you can see some of the new beds we put in this year, as well as the pots we have going. Lots of peas doing great in the rectangular box; some greens in the far square box; tomatoes, peppers and beets in the front square box; and the small box is full of strawberry plants just for Charlotte. The pots have various things including peppers, cucumbers, and even a Minnesota Midget melon plant.

Here are the two bean teepees - I have Purple Podded pole beans and Old Homestead pole beans planted with the idea that they will climb the bamboo poles making a leafy teepee for Charlotte to play under. In the back, Matt is working on constructing the base for the shed we put in this weekend.
Matt and Slavko hard at work on the shed:

Our completed garden shed:
She approves!
