Summer will arrive tomorrow - Monday, June 21st at 7:28am Eastern Daylight time. The pepper and tomato plants just went into the garden about 4 weeks ago, but they seem to think that harvest season is coming soon. This strange, early, warm spring has already coaxed flowers from the tomato plants and a few tiny pepper buds.
Last year I began making the salsa (which became Christmas gifts) in early September. This year the process could begin as early as Fourth of July weekend! I'll work on getting some photos posted over the next few weeks to show just how freakishly early the garden is coming in.
I'm NOT complaining about the weather. As a friend here in Rochester once said: "You don't have to shovel heat!"
Happy Solstice!
