Garden Update

By Lyle Hillyard
Senator, District 25

I took my turn with the irrigation last Wednesday, which is only the second time we have irrigated the garden this year. The new potatoes are great but the growth of strawberries has ended. I can’t believe how fast things grow once the weather gets warm and the crops are irrigated on a regular basis. I see blooms on the zucchini and the beans are running up the poles. The corn has begun to tassel so there should be lots to eat and freeze for later in the next few weeks. The apple crop looks really loaded. Now if I could only stop the weeds from growing by some other method than taught to me by my father. Why does a good plant die when hit by some sort of error while a weed will grow back several times when hit firmly and directly? That is a great puzzle of life.
