I'm sure there are all kinds of huge garden shows going on in England that are within driving distance for you, not to mention world-class gardens open to the public -- I'm quite envious. This tiny patch at the Fair is the closest thing we have to a display garden around here, but it was nice to walk through it and see how well things were growing (much better than the same annuals and vegetables are growing in my own gardens!). I hope you likewise are enjoying your time with family and friends, as well as your own garden. Best Regards. -Beth Garden Fancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12283184170369157189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499733980063503352.post-8145072507570290232014-07-28T06:29:33.570-05:002014-07-28T06:29:33.570-05:00Hello Beth. Glad you enjoyed the County Fair. We...Hello Beth. Glad you enjoyed the County Fair. Well done to your daughter for winning a prize for her chickens. I hope you get involved with the MG programme as I'm sure you have a lot to contribute. We haven't been to any of the big Garden Shows put on up and down England, but we watch from the comfort of the television. The designers' show gardens are always interesting and inspiring. As I've said before you have so much space on your land you have the opportunity to create various garden areas with special features. Your photos of the herb garden and the pond garden with the view of the gazebo in the background as well as the kitchen garden area caught my eye. Everything is progressing well and you must be pleased after so much hard work. There are always plans for planting for next year, but in the meantime I hope you can have a rest and really enjoy your garden this season.Linda Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634839688042592781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499733980063503352.post-79801725242670463032014-07-25T20:46:46.735-05:002014-07-25T20:46:46.735-05:00Thanks, Beth!

I'd love to hear your thoughts. Work carefully with your chainsaw (those make me nervous, as necessary as they are for gardeners).

I don't have the time to rewrite now so I'll just say I'm very impressed with all your garden area... the layout is very exciting! Enjoy your gardening break... I'm off to chainsawing land...

We've been enjoying the cucumbers my son is growing and the chard and cabbages that Brian planted. No beans though, I'm sad to say -- I'm glad you're enjoying yours!<br /><br />I have been to the Gardens at the Gazebo on the Green, and they are pretty nice. If you are thinking about ever wanting to see it in person, I would come visit it this summer -- when I talked with the owner last year, it sounded like she was pretty burnt out and might be considering hanging up the trowel. I'd love to take you there to visit it if you're ever in this area. Thanks again for reading! -BethGarden Fancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12283184170369157189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499733980063503352.post-18884710198907272922014-07-24T20:49:33.684-05:002014-07-24T20:49:33.684-05:00Your gardens are amazing, Beth!

Love the front border too. Looks like you have some interesting sunflowers planted too. Are you eating anything from the garden yet? We had green beans tonight - we've had them often. :) Are you familiar with The Gardens at Gazebo on the Green? There was an article on it in the DM Register recently and I've been following them on Facebook lately. They have 14 gardens and do teas and garden tours. Sounds like an amazing place.
