We got our veggies planted this weekend. We're hoping that it'll be a bumper crop like last year.Nothing too out of the ordinary this year: tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, cantaloupes, squash, peas, beans, Brussels sprouts, broccoli. There's probably more that I'm not remembering.
Of course, the little plants were just starting to get used to their new home--enjoying the light rain that fell on Saturday, when they were beaten up my a rogue hail storm that blew through Blooming Glen yesterday afternoon.
It was quite impressive. Luckily, the hail stones were marble-sized, but there were a lot of them! You can see in the picture that they piled up at the bottom of our downspouts and covered the yard with white.
The newly planted veggies will survive. Some torn leaves and a broken stem here and there, but I believe they'll survive to bear fruit.
