Puka's Kids

Hi Everyone! It's me...YeVette aka Puka. Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I know pretty much everyone has seen my son Hubert Linzell (20 months...4 more months to 2 years old!), but here is my new addition, Olivia Sky Marie (almost 6 months!). Love you all!

Spring Cabbage taste better eaten young.

Berea is excited snapping off Collard leaves!

On Saturday, I took Mark and Berea with me to Fodor Farm. My little side-kick, Imani was away in New York visiting her folks. Berea and Imani have been to the farm with me, but it was Marks first time. He came reluctantly but with a bit of bullying from me he came, and had a fantastic time.

I was Hoping that you would see the little DVD Slide-show that I did, but I couldn't get it to load so I did some pictures. There were about 150 pictures, but here a re just a few. Enjoy!

Mark is more excited snapping Collard leaves -- they tasted great!

I have two plots 4' X 12' at Fodor Farm which is Norwalk's Community Garden.

My friend Daisy Marie goes out there with me, she has a garden and we share another garden that was abandoned by a friend. You will see photos of many gardens and I did not tag which ones were mine. You will see because I'm picking from one of them.

At home, I'm growing Zuchini, Tomato, Celery, Brussel Sprout, Cabbage, - this garden was a Father's Day gift to Melvyn.

I am also growing herbs - Mint, Lemon-Balm Mint, Oregano, Basil, Sweet Italian Basil, Rosemary, Thyme, and Parsley.

Peoria taught me how to garden, just in case you're wondering.

Love to you all!
