This week has really heated up! We have been able to go swimming and be outside all of the time. The plants are really taking their first growth spurt and I am up to 2 okra plants! All the birds are very happy too!

We have also been able to harvest a few things:

And as for the first week of our zero waste summer challenge, altogether we only made a little over 3 ounces of trash between the 3 of us! The chocolate chips have been put into cookies enjoyed by all of us. (That’s why it’s circled!)

I have also spotted a few beautiful flowers blooming away in the garden and the bees and butterflies seem to like them!

I will get a picture of all the yummy things growing in the garden this week!
