I only thought I picked all the vegetables and fruits that were out there yesterday. This morning I went to toss some kitchen scraps in the garden and look what I found hiding!

I am getting a complex! Is your vegetable garden shaded?
Not as much as it "should" be this time of year. Most serious backyard farmers do use shade cloth to prolong the growing season, but we haven't done that because my goal isn't to maximize food production, but to combine food and ornamental plants so as to create an outdoor living space that is both attractive and functional. The beds get some shade from the house, the pergola, the gazebo, and from the fruit trees.
