Steve's Garden 2015 100

Worst ever year in the garden. Let's call it "Bummer In The Summer". A botched sewer reconstruction and repaving project in our hood unleashed a plague of voracious rats. I should also mention that the army of rabbits in the Chelsea finally discovered that my heirloom tomatoes taste way better than the weeds most of us call our "lawns". We were also attacked by air. Flocks of ravenous birds hovered and pecked out the centers of my lovely tomatoes and sweet peppers. It's a miricle that we were left with much of anything to eat but our luckier neighbors were happy to share. Depicted here are two ears of Black Incan Kulli corn growing out of the same stalk. In the distance see a huge condo building nearing completion. Once a sleepy outlying district with lots of affordable housing for government "clerks", B-Town is undergoing the urbanization/"gentrification" we anticipated when we moved here fifteen years ago.
