I enjoyed the rambling style of writing that you use. It actually matches the way your garden seems to have grown this month.
I grow and use many herbs, the type that the mob of Vervet monkeys do not eat. Sadly they decimate any crop often picking the fruit green so it lies wasted on the ground.
Lol, I definitely ramble. I even mention this from time to time.
I wouldn't be too happy if there were vervet monkeys in my garden. We have magpies which is annoying enough to deal with.
My issue now is a 2 week leave of absence during a crutial replanting time. Most of it will happen right in the middle. Let's see if I can still grow something in early fall.
