Over the weekend I picked up a 2' x 8' trellis (they didn't have any 4' x4'), cut it in half, and now we have a trellis for the peas to attach to and climb. We still may have to put something in front later on. Last year I cut a conical tomato cage and spread it open to do this and we may have to use it again this year.
The garlic is looking well. Some of the bases are pretty thick which should mean big bulbs. I guess that's the difference between planting it in the Spring versus the previous Fall.
In the east garden, the strawberry plants are getting blooms all over the place. The plants that Kate transplanted into the upper right are surviving, I just hope that corner doesn't get baked again this year or we may have to find a more sun-friendly vegetable or plant to put up there with the strawberries.
Edit: Last night we did get some frost here, it doesn't seem to have hurt anything, thankfully.
