What's Growing

I just harvested my first ever garlic crop! I have it drying in my shed for about two weeks. In its place I've planted parsnip seeds.

Soft garlic harvest.

Hardneck garlic harvest.

I also just pulled my spinach which began to flower and will plant some more. I had to capture this rainbow of swiss chard - var. Multicolor Bright Lights - before I planted again. (Don't mind the stalks that I've already munched! My favorite so far? Swiss chard sauteed in olive oil with garlic and bacon over pasta topped with a good grate of parm cheese.)

Cabbage head - Ruby Perfection.

Baby brussels.

Bean blossoms and beans! (Purple Royal Burgundy.)

It's beans and butter for dinner!

Climbing cukes, Northern Pickling Cucumbers.

Sweeties! And sweet they are ... yum!
