The Coeur d'Alene Coop
And neither are we. The garden has been neglected these last few weeks, but even without constant care and water, it has thrived and is still producing. Look at those Potato Leaf Yellow tomatoes Craig LeHoullier, it's October 15, and there is still big green fruit on the vines. Our gardens are so much more resilient than we think. And, I've learned that I am also more resilient than I thought possible. 💪🍅#thecoeurdalenecoop#gardenstrong#cancersucks#makingourway ...
