Flowers, Farm, and Fresh
(click on photo for bigger and best view)
I came across this FLOWER a few days ago at a garden center. I think it's some kind of Hibiscus. It was beautiful and my favorite this week.
I hope I will see many of them when I'm in CT next week for a high school reunion! August is the best time to visit the FIELDS of SUNFLOWERS in Newburtport, MA
(taken in 2021 or 22)
Twice a week I visit this local FARM, it's only a few miles from where I live. I buy all my summer veggies here.
Nothing like FRESH, right out the garden!
Picked daily and you can't beat these prices!
Tomato $2 a lb and .50 an ear of corn!
...Dawn, I like your pink hardy hibiscus and of course the sunflowers.
ReplyDelete...I like the rolling FARM FIELD.
..those are FABULOUS looking FRESH tomatoes and corn, summer is a great time of year.
Thanks FOR stopping by, enjoy your weekend.
Pretty corn field, Dawn. Tom knows his flowers, that used to be his employment before he retired. I would never have guessed Hibiscus, was there a little blurb about them with some of the plants? I used to love sweet corn on the cob, but my digestive system doctor said, "no more." Seeds ether, I take them out with the tomatoes that I eat.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're going to you class reunion. An impressive number? I've been to a few of mine, like you, Tekamah, Nebraska, is a long way from my home now. The last one I went to we had lunch at the Senior Center. A classmate of mine was sitting next to our table, I would have come over to exchange a few words after we finished eating. Bu she came to our table, exclaiming, "Jim Hxxxx, Is that you? I had you in my book with the deceased!" Wow, I'm glad she was there.

DeleteMeant to mention eating tomatoes and vegetables raw in the garden. I imagine you did also. Perhaps the farmer would let you do that with his?

Amy, I agree. Fresh vegetables straight from the ground are always fresher than the bought ones. These Sunflowers woujld brighten up anyone's day. I hope you have a lovely week ahead.
ReplyDeleteSunflowers are my favorite! The farm shot makes me homesick for Illinois. I always had a garden there. I miss fresh tomatoes. I could have a garden here, but there are too many copperheads and rattlesnakes to worry about. Happy Saturday!
