| title | "Colorchallenge Thursday Green: New Life in Our Garden" |
|---|
| body | "Here's today's entry for the **#colorchallenge** photo contest, originally started by **@kalemandra,** and and by now one of the longest running photo activities and mass participation challenges in the community.
Today's theme is *"Thursday Green."* Green is the color of life; green gives us life. Green is also the color traditionally associated the Heart Chakra.
*A tiny Nasturtium pokes its head into the light*
It has been an unusually cold, cloudy and damp start to the summer here, and everything we are growing seems to be *"running late."
*Eventually, this should become broccoli*
Without sun and warmth, it seems that many of our vegetable seedlings and sprouts are just remaining tiny and sad. The importance of sunlight, illustrated.
*The shallots are doing well!*
The only exception seems to be our shallots, which are remarkably stout and happy looking. Looks like we may get as much as a dozen new bulbs from each one set.
Even the pine and spruce trees are slow to set new growth, this year.
Thanks for looking, and have a beautiful day!" |
