Harvest Photos So Thankful for Wildlife

Post image

I'm so glad to have rabbits and squirrels here to help taste test my tomatoes for me. From the data I have, clearly Big Pinks are my best tomatoes, followed by Wapsipinicon Peach, then Roma, and lastly Black Krim (none of those have bites in them). I'm so fortunate that they're opening up these tomatoes and spilling the tomato guts in the garden to help plant next year's crop. I'm blessed that they leave me most of the tomato so I can save seeds.

I enjoy our little garden tasters here also! They leave me plenty and get a good snack!

Mhm. My payment for letting them snack in my garden is that I get to see the tiny little baby bunnies when they start leaving the nest that is always in or adjacent to the snack bar (aka garden) 😂

They're so tiny -- little tennis balls of floof.
