Things continue to grow and our anti-gopher measures appear to have worked. Pumpkins, squash, tomatoes, onions, raspberries, grapes (our vineyard), peaches, nectarines, peppers and sunflowers are growing profusely.
Before:
This is a picture of the terraces just before we moved in. There were no plants only the stumps of juniper bushes and weeds.
After:Our terraces here are now full of greenery. We also have a successful half barrel pond this year with gold fish.
Large sunflowers are a new features this year and seem to be doing great.
This is supposedly a pumpkin though it resembles a watermelon right now, but what do I know. It is about a foot long so far...either way we are good to go here!

I feel a photo op coming up...
That is so awesome! I really admire anyone who can see the fruits of their labor-you must be saving a ton of money on produce! I'm sure it tastes much better than store bought stuff too.
Awesome garden! I love that you're growing pumpkins.
Are you guys coming up tomorrow or Wednesday?
I love the sunflowers! Great work on your yard. Inspires me to do something to ours which has been neglected the last 2 years. Is MaCall home yet? I can't wait to hear about the trip!
Beautiful! I love our little garden but wish we had the space to grow various squashes too. Let's get together next week.
