Tour of Our Garden and Property

Our burn pile. Gotta love a good cooking fire. :)














Some of the far garden tomato plants. These were the runts that Mom saved and nursed back to health.


















Our grape arbor with our dilapidated old barn in the background and my old Chevy beside it.














These are a couple year old hemlock and cedar trees that I got from the forest service. They were shutting down the refrigerators that they keep seedlings in for some reason and needed to give away a bunch of trees. Most of them have survived.














This is on the edge of our new orchard looking into our old orchard where I am currently building a chicken coop.













This is our front flower garden. The bed on the right is new this year. The other bed has been there as long as I remember.




















This is the back of our house














This is the far walnut tree - see canoe to right of tree for scale.



















Back of our house again this time showing the tomato plants that run along the edge of our back patio













Our compost pile... lots of good dirt is made here.















View looking toward the front yard












Front yard. Bottom of the huge blue spruce on the left. Front of house on the right. Few year old baby gynco(sp?) tree in the middle.














Looking east from our house. That is one of the tomato beds with sunflowers on the left side. One the far side of the tomato bed is Twedt's property.












This is in front of the house again. The front garden bed. Daisies, squash, kale, leeks... potatoes that you cannot see















Our wonderful juniper tree. There used to be a massive Doug Fir towering behind it... the juniper is doing much better with that gone.



















Our blue spruce which towers at least twice as tall as our two story house. This is by far the biggest blue spruce I have ever seen anywhere.
















The planter beside our front porch with sweet peas in it














The fig tree in our front yard. The juniper is just to the right of this picture. That's an old cedar hedge bordering the road behind the fig tree.













One of the only roses still blooming... right by our front porch

















A view of the front garden bed from the porch side. Lots of kale!













This picture is one a took a month back when all the poppies were still blooming. It's right out by the road at the end our our long driveway for everyone to see.















This is a closer up of our back patio pictured earlier with the tomato plants running all around the edge.
