The beans and peas are growing and need a little support to be trained to grow up.
We lashed together the branches of the tree that used to be in the backyard with a piece of bamboo.
Then I put screws in the sides of the bed and put twine from the from one screw, around the bamboo and tied it off at a screw on the other side so the beans will have something to climb. I also put a few horizontal pieces of twine and will probably add more as they grow taller.
For now the heirloom beans, green beans, and sugar peas look happy.
And the other beds are coming along too... the beets in the root bed, the greens are growing, and one bed that's tomatoes and four pepper plants...
My veggies seem to be loving this mix of rain and sunny weather we've been having. But the flowers in my backyard haven't don't much yet...
