Dad's Garden, Part 3

Dad's garden is starting to wake and spring to life.

Even with all of the storms from last week, the garden is looking good.


The onions have been planted and are looking great! 
Here is a row of red onions and white onions.


Here is a short row of carrots on the left and leaf lettuce on the right. 


The carrots are just poking up their little heads.


Cabbages and broccoli looking very healthy.


And my favorite - Ma Parham's pole beans.
They are the most beautiful shade of dark purple when they are raw and turn green as they cook.
And they are mighty tasty!


The tomato plants are coming right along. 
They will be big enough to set out soon.


And here is the black gold that makes everything grow. 
Dad has an amazing compost pile.
Dad was growing green before is was cool to go green.


The blueberry blooms are gone and have been replaced by these cute little blueberries.
