This is one earlier of the June bearing strawberry plants in our raised vegetable bed.

Taken by my wife with a Canon SD790 IS in Macro mode who clearly has better eye for lighting and a steadier hand than I do.

The Pioneer Woman had these great simple instructions to build a raised vegetable bed. I built a smaller version with 2×6’s cut at 4 feet length. Then doubled the height. You can’t tell but there’s hardware cloth underneath. When strawberry production slows down in winter, I’ll re-do this right and put some commercial grade weed cover under the hardware cloth to deter gophers further. They can’t break through it currently, but it hasn’t stopped them from trying.

Taken with my new & used macro 60mm f/2.8 lens.
