We thought the green beans were about done, but they said, "Naw, summer ain't over yet!" ☀️

Miss Lacey melted in the sun this morning to get these picked, along with some more okra and tomatoes. First come, first serve!

The library is closed Saturday-Monday for Labor Day Weekend, so feel free to take a peek at the garden and help yourself. There's green peppers, okra and some more baby beans that will be ready soon. 🫑🍅

Don't forget you can also make a bouquet with beautiful zinnias, basil and other wildflowers.💐
