Blooming blossoms

Since his early arrival back on the farm, Mark has been busy planting our new garden. Every year it gets bigger. Tomatoes, green beans, peas, zucchinis, potatoes. Just some of the produce we will be enjoying this summer. He has transplanted some raspberries down to the pond and near where the new fruit trees are planted. He is hinting that jam may need to be made. The zucchinis are blooming already, which means he has to put more in so that there are blossoms for frying when I get there. We thought we would also try zucchini fritters, with a yoghurt and mint dipping sauce. Right now he is eating baby zucchinis sliced into his spring vegetable pasta.
