Camper GroVid22 Garden Update

Camper GroVid22 Garden Update


Back home, the garden really suffered with the summer drought. but here, at my camper by the shore, the gardens seem to be holding their own! Thriving even.

Above: Cutting and prepping my harvests of Red Beard Bunching Onion.

In May, I planted 9 tomato plants, 2 cucumber and a bunch of basil. Within a week of planting, the Beefsteak and Branywine were both gone... eaten by some enterprising Red Squirrels. Within a month it was clear one of the cucumber was dead as well. Typical die off from transplant shock I suppose.


The rest survived until recently. I lost the Blueberry Cherry tomato within the past 10 days or so. I managed to get quite a bit out of that Blueberry Cherry tomato Plant. As well as harvesting plenty from the rest.

Below: I do try and clean, as well as refill the Red squirrel... er... Hummingbird feeder daily.


One of my neighbors here, has a big water feature, with over three feet deep of water. The allows him to keep Koi all winter as the ice never freezes that deep. in addition, it seems he has a couple of nice large frogs who do park themselves in residence!

The tomato plants and cucumber have quite a bit more on their vines, and I expect harvest for the next few weeks consistently.

This weekend, I will be selling images at my Artisan Event: Harwich Cranberry Festival! It's a celebration of the Fall Cranberry Harvest on Cape Cod (home of Cranberry harvesting!)


LOTS More to come, from my GroVid22 Gardens!

Tomatoes especially are looking good 👍 We were feeding sunflower seeds to cardinals last winter but it was a running battle with the squirrels 🙄 Thats a healthy looking red squirrel... nice coat. We have mostly grey squirrels but a few red are around. Good luck at the event this weekend 🙂

Healthy? I surely do hope so!
I fed him nectar (for my hummingbirds)
Grape Jelly (for my orioles)
Thistle and safflower seed (for about 20 species of local birds)

He was well fed and a balanced diet

It looks super peaceful. I can totally imagine walking out that tent in the morning and the smell of campfires and the quiet.

The tomatoes are looking epic!
