How does your garden grow?

I am quite happy with my garden this year. I know I did not plant much, but what I did put in the ground is doing quite well. My strawberries are big, plump and red. They are sweet and delicious. I just need to figure out who is eating them before I can get the off the vine. It appears to be a squirrel or something. I put moth balls in the area tp help ward them off, but the rain melted them. I need a new plan.

My two tomato plants are doing great. I have lots and lots and lots of tomatoes growing on them. I cannot wait for our first home grown tomato sandwich of the season! I had to buy tomatoes while grocery shopping today…that bites when I have so many hanging out just waiting to ripen at home.
