Drum roll, please….the winner of Local Bounty (generously donated by the Book Publishing Company) is Susan, number 33, who had this to say:
“zucchini zucchini zucchini….its coming out of my ears right now…three different recipes in the fridge at the moment…i love summer gardens”
Please contact me through blogger or my address at the right with your mailing address so I can get this book out to you. And thank you again to everyone who entered.
Many thanks to the Book Publishing Company for their non-stop awesomeness. Did I ever tell you that way back in the ’80′s I got tempeh starter from them? Well, I did.
In keeping with the theme of this post, let me show you some pictures of our garden, before the deer had a midnight snack.
Our little garden: 1 cuke, 1 lettuce, peppers and tomatoes
Green Zebra heirloom tomatoes!
The pepper the deer ate
The cherry tomatoes we ate!
Enjoy the great local bounty this time of year, wherever you are!
New contest coming soon!

Build a scarecrow wolf?
Your veggies look wonderful. I can’t wait to have a yard and a garden next summer.
Yay for your garden!!! Your tomatoes look good, I’m still waiting for my cherry tomatoes to turn red.
I’m totally jealous of your garden! Those tomatoes look tasty!
mmm i love my garden so much! my tomatoes have yet to ripen but i have millions of cucumbers that are about to burst off the vine. hooray summer salads.
those tomatoes look wonderful!
Wow! Looks great!!!
My organic farmstand up the road has a safe way to deter deer… I will check out their bulletin when I visit next time and share with you.
Your garden looks wonderful. I wish I had space to grow my own veggies.
the only way i’ve heard of keeping deer out is to build a fence around the garden which may or may not be practical depending on the size of your garden!!!
I love garden posts! I have a green zebra tomato plant in my garden too this year, and I can’t wait to try them…the tomatoes are still pretty tiny, so your photo is a good preview – thanks!
Oh noes! Sorry about the deer
Your garden looks fantastic though! My black thumb is super jealous!
congrats to the winner! our garden is very ghetto, but the ‘maters are outta control this year because of all the rain we’ve been getting. you’re gonna LOVE thoze zebra tomatoes–mmmmm, they are so delicious and meaty, sprinkle ‘em with some sea salt and a few drops of olive oil. ((((drooling))))
btw, i work in a gardening store (wormsway.com) and we sell something called deer off that keep the deer and other critters away from eating yer veggies.
Thanks, everyone, and I’m still open to ideas! Luckily, the deer walked right through our yard the other day and didn’t even look at it…maybe they think they got the good stuff!
Some of our pepper plant leaves are looking really spotty and wilted. I’m starting to think they’re sick. But the tomatoes are going great!
