New Photos of the Produce Garden Beds

I have reorganized in Google Photos all the pictures of the Produce Garden beds.

Here is an example:
Beds 1-2

All of the beds and photos can be reached from the Produce Garden Page.

Week of July 20 - the Plan

Finish Area 51 - no, no. Finish Bed 29 - move the last sod into Bed 29.

Water.

Weed - and avoid killing the borage that we have discovered growing in the paths. 

Clean up the Parking Lot Garden. I suspect that the rain over the weekend has washed more mulch westward towards the west drain.

Borage

Found this growing in several of the paths in the Produce Garden:
After asking around, we've discovered (thanks Kelly!) it's borage which I know is a beneficial plant and assists in the overall health of a garden. See http://permaculturenews.org/2011/01/21/all-about-borage/ for further information.

Shelob's Lair

You can see the aforementioned Shelob at the centre of the photograph. Taken in the Parking Lot Garden after last night's rain. There were many other examples this morning, but this one best shows the spider owner of her nest.

Bear!

Well, actually, a wooly bear - I think. Does anyone know exactly what this is?
