kathy, love your garden, wonderful to see small space gardening throughout the united states. i’m located in a (very) small town in southwest washington and run a small business called urban farm school. looks like our harvest season is just about the same. i too am (im)patiently awaiting my first tomato, stupice will be first. great blog, it’s now in my favourites and i look forward to watching your season.

I just came across your blog, and I really like it! My wife and I live in Framingham, and we have recently gotten into vegetable gardening. We have a very small amount of space dedicated to it (64 sq ft worth in raised beds), but as this is our first year, we didn’t want to go overboard.
Anyhow – I’m glad I came across your site – it can be tough to find good vegetable gardening information sources for this area for new people like my wife and I.
Besides the bee in flight, I really love the texture on the squash vines – I forget every summer how spiky they are until I reach in to grab a ripe fruit. My cucumbers got me good this afternoon!
What a great photo! I find the squash leaves awfully irritating, too, especially the sprawling ones. I’ve had great fun watching squash bees this season!

Hi –

Wow, great capture!

Phenomenal shot, Kathy.

I am getting a serious rash on my wrists this year and I think it is from my squashes. They have serious spines! Especially those zucchinis.
Like you say, this photo is a cucumber flower.
What a great close-up photo. It shows the pollen on the bee’s leg. Your blog is wonderful!
