Mmmmm.....strawberries

Ok, am I the only one who likes strawberry shortcake for dinner in the summer?? Andy always gets a good chuckle when I do this. Our garden is going gangbusters this year and we have reaped at least 3 BIG bowls of beautiful strawberries in the last few weeks! It is so much fun to have enough to share with our neighbors and friends. I love the idea of having a huge garden and living in community!
Our trick to a fabulous garden? South facing sun, against the house, and lots of steer manure! Love that cow poop! We don't use any other fertilizer or bug spray or anything! All we have at the moment is strawberries, Walla Walla onions, tomatoes, and chives. Would love to have more, maybe we could squeeze a few other things???
