June Has Finally Arrived!

Hi Everyone. June has finally arrived. And Summer is officially underway. Here in Beautiful Southeastern Wisconsin, all plantings should be firmly planted in the ground.

Now it's time to shift into the protective mode. The critters are out in full force - And it's us against them!

This year I made a raised bed garden just for Asparagus and one just for Strawberries. Already the critters have pulled up some of my Asparagus roots. ;o(

And here's some more bad news.......... One cucumber was pulled up and left to die a slow death on top of the soil. Even the major thorny Blackberry's were "topped" by someone.

The backyard is laced with fencing - fencing going in every direction. The makeshift scare crows will be going up soon. Like I said, It's US AGAINST THEM! It seems even my own dogs will turn on me. That's right, I've caught them pulling up young broccoli plants! CAN YOU IMAGINE !!

They even pull their own raspberry's off the canes. If they see me doing something, it's almost a given I will catch them doing the same. Oh, did I ever mention our sister website........ www.DogGoneGlamorous.com. You might want to take a look - Gardeners are generally dog lovers as well.

Until next time..........

Yours In The Garden,

Kim ;o)
