the power of sun

6 days in a row of sunshine:  a record for Vancouver. at least since i've been here.  

the warmth has coaxed 

poppies to bloom & swell...



and a sea of fragrant buckwheat to erupt in waves



yet still cool enough for a second round of baby salad greens.

our Chinese Market Garden is shaping up nicely- mustards, Pak choi, Gai lan, radishes, spinach, chives, and cabbage should be perfect for the kids camp in 2 weeks (see the bed design on the 'Design' tab of this blog)


hairy melon, bitter melon & long beans on the trellises


and our new Goji berries are in full bloom...
