We've harvested two tomatoes so far and more will probably ripen this week. We also have lots of little green beans, cubanelle peppers and cucumbers that will be ready in a few days.
Chard is still doing well, although it's a cool-season plant here, so I need to plan something for that soon. We've already picked some basil over the last week, for caprese salad, and woody herbs are perennials here. A couple of weeks ago, I pruned my bay leaves, lemon balm and rosemary and put them out front for people to take for free.
No diseases or bad pests so far, although the Mortgage Lifter tomatoes weren't doing well and had to be pulled. I'm thinking it was the cold/hot/cold temps that took them out. Sad, because I love their flavor.
We have a pot of mesclun on the back porch. I'm going to pick some to have with dinner tonight.
