harvesting




There is something so fulfilling about being able to go to your own little patch of earth and pick vegetables. The last couple of years we have begun anew to garden in a plot that was left to weed after my mom passed away. It has been so rewarding. We so far have had tons of peas, radishes, and green onions. I haven't planted beets since the early 8o's but here is our new attempt.
We will need to work on telling when they are done and uniform in size. We have been blessed with tons of herbs: thyme, Italian Parsley, rosemary, cilantro, dill and here too is our beautiful basil and some of the first green peppers. It is so rewarding and fun to go out each day and see what new gift the earth has given us.
