I’m always surprised at how much further along your growing season is than ours in the Great Lakes. It will be August before I have zinnias, squash, etc.
I always have the same thoughts when I view these farm pictures. I'm in VA and my garden has begun to fizzle out. I think the extreme heat is slowing down production but my zinnias and cosmos are absolutely gorgeous this year.
I have enjoyed this set of pictures but as is the case sometimes, I also appreciated a comment. I am not a wordsmith but I do appreciate how some people can use words - Superlatively beautiful photos! I’d love to use that description sometimes but I’d feel guilty of plagiarism.
The guy is just a master of all he does, isn't he? I'll bet his mom sure had her hands full. His stand-up tractor driving always makes me smile. Thank you for the great photos.

Some of my favorite things: A farm (and old farm equipment), zinnias, and a black faced sheep!
