Cutworms!  The garden is seeing more cutworm damage once again. Luckily it is not a severe infestation. But it does get frustrating to see a seedling get chopped down right at the soil. The photo below is from a USDA extension site, but that's the type of damage and worm that we are seeing. 

Our harvests still include a selection of various veggies. We have a fairly steady supply of potatoes, either sweets or Irish type. And the garden constantly has a selection of greens and herbs. 

Another of our experiments below.....

Here we are testing to see of the potatoes will produce a crop if grown and a pea trellis. The peas may eventually shade out the potatoes, so we shall see what happens. 

These young potato plants above are ready for mulching.
