Summer has arrived in Dallas. As weย flirt with 100 degrees, the air laysย blanket thick over my garden. Yet even with hot, hotย temperatures,ย bright colors and fresh smells fill Promise of Peace Community Garden. Cucumbers and okra are taking over my bed. I harvest tomatoes, eggplant, ginormous basil, spinach, and swiss chard. In my neighbors’ plots, pumpkins, cantaloupe and honeydew growย heavy on the vine.
Here are a few pictures I snapped this week.
A beautiful, hot place.
