The Calendula is one of the few plants thriving in the garden this year.

I’m finally starting to get Tansy buttons! I look forward to dyeing with these.

The flax is going gangbusters. It’s close to time to harvest!

The dye plants that survived the spring slugs are doing well: indigo, madder, and black hollyhocks. The soapwort survived the transplant. I’ve even got a secret okra plant!

I haven’t seen any frogs in a few days. I hear them singing in the woods, though. Maybe it’s mating season?
