garden inventory

Our garden is really coming along and i'm starting to feel proud of myself and all those who have put their hands in the soild to help out. The watermelon seeds i planted (organic, from seeds of change) have all sprung up, we have about 8-10 right now. Hopefully they'll all grow into delicious sugar babies and we can celebrate with them around the end of August.
Yesterday was a karmatic day in the garden; i was given three tomatoes plants and an armload of Napa Cabbage. The tomatoes got planted (now we have a total of 5 tomatoe plants) and the cabbage is about to be cooked into a delicious breakfast stirfry. A couple of the pea plants are growing rapidly, but i didn't know they needed to grow up a fence of something, so i just put a stick there, but they've out grown it now so i will have to come up with another cool idea for these climbers.
The peppers aren't growing very much, but i guess i'm just happy they've grown at all. I took their seeds out of my compost pile in my backyard and planted them in a tray. This was my serendipitous attempt at seed saving. Ken Greene runs a Seed Library in Accord, NY where seeds are collected and saved to create heirloom plants that adapt to growing to this area. I don't have the time now (i'm getting ready for the previously mentioned breakfast) to talk about the need for this, but check it out if you get a chance.
We planted Organic Carrots and Beets, two beds for each. I still have squash, spinach and pumpkin seeds to plant. Luckily all these enjoy the cold weather a bit will give us a nice supply into the fall. And of course, i have saved the best for last, our BROCCOLI is AMAZING! honestly, it's truly beautiful. It's huge and flowering, it's beginning to really look like broc! There's still plenty of work to be done, and its really enjoyable. When i start feeling down about the lack of connection, i remind myself how amazing and COLLECTIVE it is to be part of a Community Garden where everything is communal and everyone works not just on their on plot but to keep everything running and growing.
Also: new cake: Lemon Ginger Coconut Bundt! It's really delicious. I made it for Independence Day and it was promptly devoured. The best part is it calls for 3 cups of flour, so i'm finally making a dent in the 25 lbs i bought (i can't believe i did that, i'm so whacky!). I'm trying to be more experimental with my cake flavor combinations while still creating rich, delicious, moist vegan cakes. So any flavor ideas, pass them on!
I'm going to start posting pictures of the things i make on here, but first i need to get my sister's camera, so look forward to: visuals, desserts, things i sew, more cryptic prose.
