I don't even have everything in the ground yet! I've been growing lettuce inside, though, and this weekend I plan to harvest my first salad. Some of the inside herbs are ready to start using, too.

The first potatoes I planted are growing nicely, although they haven't flowered yet. The garlic is just showing signs of yellowing and fading, but that might have a month or more to go yet.

Tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes.

Summer squash, onions, okra.

Onions, garlic.

Irish potatoes.

Bell peppers, eggplant.

Did I mention tomatoes?

We're a bit past you weather-wise apparently. The peas are long gone, lettuce hanging on day by day - but needing to grab shade material to keep from bolting.

Picked the first two cherry type tomatoes yesterday, with many little tads just waiting. The many varieties of peppers that I planted (for making pepper powders) are doing quite well - but had a slow start. Some left over from last year - turning perennial - many are loaded - and hope to keep a lot of the spice types going that way.

Pole beans - for dinner everyday - many bush types flowering for dilly beans later.

A few bulb onions (Burgundy) doing well. Many multiplier types. Garlic harvested already.

Lots of herbs - parsley, thyme, oregano, mints, etc.

Saw one tiny pickling cuke - and vines look good.

Various melons/squash/cukes in the vining/flowering stages.

Boysenberries - heavy crop, apricots heavy but just ripening, almonds (surprise), and macadamias ripe and falling, even the Fuju persimmon is loaded, but not ripe yet - (we had more winter chill this year).

Asparagus - 3 rd year, but not too many. Next year with Jerseys hopefully?

Just my 2 c's.

I picked 4 zuchinni night before last and 2 bell peppers. We had them for dinner last evening. Delicious! Yellow squash soon. Cuckes, Tomatoes, beans, egg plant and okra are all doing great and about ready.Can't wait. Nothing like fresh veggies.

We're having a tough time here with the drought, and this is my experimental year in my new place. So I have less than many people around here -- no tomatoes or peppers yet.

Herbs: pulling up the last of the basil, mint and epazote is bolted. First year for thyme, sage and oregano, so I am letting it go. Harvest rosemary year round.

Fruits: What few strawberries and raspberries I had on my new plants are done. Blueberries and peaches should be coming in, but lost them to the freeze.

In the veggie garden:
Woods Prolific Bush Scallop - coming in like crazy.
Dragon's Tongue fresh beans - just a few plants, but I am eating a handful every day.
Parade cucumbers: coming in small due to drought, but I will probably start a jar in brine today or tomorrow.
Double Yield cucumbers: got the first on this morning

Lettuce, cukes and squash. Still waiting on tomatoes, melons, and peppers.

Well I've got lettuce, spinach, and cilantro. Harvesting a little basil at a time. The summer squash is a couple days away. Still waiting on everything else.

Chard
Lettuce
Still some sweet peas.
The okra is blooming, but the tomatoes peppers and vines are still waiting for more heat I think.

It's a weird harvest in East Tennessee just now--sort of the bridge time between the warm-weather stuff and the cool-weather stuff.

What's I'm picking: Bright Lights chard, Sweet Million tomatoes, Gold Bar squash, Flying Saucer squash, dill heads, basil (!!!), broccoli, shallots, garlic, cherry peppers, jalapenos, anaheims, green bells, blackberries, bits of cilantro here and there, nasturtiums, a few early soybeans.

What's gone before: Granex onions, radishes, and sugar snap peas. Carrots failed miserably. Apart from that, it's a decent year considering the drought.

I just harvested a bunch of pansies, which are getting leggy. I crystallized them with sugar and gelatin and they are so pretty and tasty! I can't wait to put them on cupcakes.

We have been eating:
lettuce
bok choi
2-3 strawberries per day
my sugar snap peas just started producing yesterday, so I will be eating those in a matter of days

mostly peas, waiting on carrots and cabbage.

Lots of herbs, chives, oregono, tyme, sage, cilantro, dill, mints. Onion and shallot greens and a lot of baby salad greens including rouge D'Hiver, Black seeded simpson, mustard greens, and my favorite, arugula. I've also been harvesting radishes for some time.

The summer is just ahead up here in Maine.

I harvested couple of Zuccini, and a summer squash( yellow ), alot of lettuce, rocket, basils, dill leave, celtuce, sugar peas and snow peas, some korabi, Bokchoi and Kailann.

Just pollenated a buttercup female flower, one watermelon has a female flower ready to blossom in couple of days.

I have not see any bees out there yet. I have heard 1/3 of bee population had died due to cell phone signal which interfere bee's homing. Anyone know more about it?

Tomatoes, bell pepper, banana pepper, white patty pan squash, Tromboncino zucchini, and onion. Cucumbers and beans are any day now.

I seem to still have plenty of bees and wasps, although it seems to be less than last year, when I could hardly take a step in my garden without angering some stinging insect.

A couple days ago, a bumblebee got caught under one of my zuccini's hot hats. He was NOT happy! I managed to tip the cloche up with a branch, and away he went. In the other direction, luckily.

still harvesting tomatoes but most of them have stink bug damage at this point. Clemson spineless okra, roma II bush beans, tendercrop bush beans, diva cucumbers and black beauty eggplant.

Wow, I feel so far behind! I've only harvest radishes, lettuce and some perennial herbs so far.

Next year, I'm going to be ahead of the game. :)

I got such a late start because we were doing my beds over and I didn't want to plant until that was finished so I haven't a lot but onions...peppers...still have lettuce...picked my first green beans, radishes ...things are growing nicely and I am actually proud of my garden but way behind for our season...I should already have tomatoes close to ripening and I'm not even close...I think my beans are going to be in full production soon and I am already looking for a spot to plant more...I love my garden and it gives me such pleasure...

Lettuce
Spinach
Radishes
Garlic chives
Chinese vegetables bok choi etc.

Lettuces and more lettuces, chard, beet greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, rhubarb, strawberries, garlic greens and scapes, onion tops, snap peas, basil, dill, cilantro. Collards and bush beans are just around the bend.

I've got those "tons of lettuce."

Still have plenty of scallions, bok choi and mizuna with more Chinese cabbage coming on. And, about a "ton" of beet greens also over the last few weeks. The radish and arugula are past but that's mostly because they weren't replanted to take advantage of the last few days of cool weather.

Peas are flowering and we should have those next week!

Olympia_gardner; The cell phone signals effecting bees is a myth. The only thing that's effecting them are funguses and molds in their hives. It's nothing new, it just happens to be especially bad this year and last (quite likely due to climate change).

Lettuce and Radishes are aready gone in my garden.

Currently this is what I'm harvesting:
Detroit Dark Red Beets
Orange Bell Pepper
Early Flat Dutch Cabbage
Japanese Climbing Cucumber
Black Valentine Beans
Red Onions
Yellow Straightneck Squash

I'm expecting tomatoes and sweet corn before the month is over.

Spinach and most of the lettuce have bolted. Still picking arugula flowers and one or two types of lettuce. Broccoli, shelling peas, chard, radicchio. Kale: Tuscan, blue Scotch, red Russian. About a quart a week of strawberries. Tarragon, sweet marjoram, chervil, cilantro, thyme, rosemary, dill. Chives and chive flowers.

On the way: parsley, basil. Squash, cukes, melons, peppers have been flowering; tomatoes have set fruit, still green.

Two pounds of beans.

We have just started harvesting our okra and Japanese climbing cucumbers. Here they are:

I harvested all of my Bogatyr garlic, my only hardneck, tonight. The bulbs look firm and healthy. I'll harvest most of the rest this weekend. There are some that still look green. I may leave them in another week or two.

Eating garlic is supposed to keep mosquitoes away. How come I'm still getting bitten?

I'm just harvesting Swiss chard collards and summer squash at the moment. The tomatoes and sweet bell peppers will be here soon!

My mess I picked yesterday.....
{{gwi:66385}}

Bush beans
Lettuce
baby carrots
herbs (basil, parsley, oregano, chives...)

tomatoes have set fruit, peppers are flowering, pole beans and cucumbes are still climbing...

More fresh wax beans. And more. And more.
My dry beans are almost harvest and done, except the Mitla Black beans which are just getting started but have already had am impressive yield.
Tons of patty pan squash and cucumbers
Some zucchini
Most of the herbs are harvested and are hanging to dry or being added to preserves.
Still eating some strawberries and raspberries.

Still no tomatoes, tomatillos, and the peppers aren't even blooming yet. My garden is not doing well there. Corn soon, very soon. The first melons in another week or tweo.

Here is another update on today's harvest:
