A garden gallery for this June’s progress in the new, monstrous greenhouse we affectionately refer to as the Upper Greenhouse (or UGH)!
Early June: A view down the UGH from the porch
End of June: The tomatoes near the top are coming along nicely!
This portion of the UGH was the origina grow space of the first greenhouse. This year it’s tomatillos, tomatoes, squash, peppers, beans, and culinary herbs. As well as a few young grapes and cherry trees!
The rest of these photos are from the end of June; the string beans are really taking off!
