This is a close-up view of the garden. It looks like it was taken mid morning around the first of June, 2014. The gourds in the middle were the only part of the garden that did well after the big flood that hit at the end of June. There are some trees along the creek that shade the garden in the morning. The flood cut the bank real close to them and another one like it might drop them. So this spring Jacob and I will cut up the trees for firewood. We will anchor pine trees on the base of the bank to catch sand and heal up the bank so it doesn't erode into the garden. Jacob and I did our best to thin out the deer herd last fall and so did our neighbors.
