First radish harvest

I planted the radishes on March 25. And here is the first harvest! I had two of them with my lunch today ---- yummy! Vegetables taste better when they are home grown. Seven weeks of patience.

Weclome May 2011!

April showers bring green and happy plants! This is a collage of radishes, peas, tomato, and strawberry plants. May has brought sunny and warm days after a very cold and wet April.

end of April

It's been a month since we planted. If you look close, you can see baby beets appearing through the soil. A year ago we just placed the soil in the boxes...and now I have my second crop slowly growing.

Seeds are bursting out!

It is always fun to go to the garden and see what's new. Today another group box (HEE) had the peas popping out!



There are just a few spinach and beets sprouting, but the radishes are growing bigger each day!

Happy radishes!

The radishes are happy a week later. Two or three spinach plants have also appeared. (The radishes have been in almost three weeks.)

Radishes have sprouted!

After the beautiful 70 degrees on Friday, snow fell on Sunday and it was still in the garden yesterday.


Today I walked over to the garden to find no snow and tiny radishes appearing!

Welcome April 2011!

A year ago we barely had the boxes in place in the garden----and now we are checking to see if our first round of plantings sprouted. Our boxes are still without sprouts. It has been in the low 70s the last three days, but this morning I awoke to 5 inches of snow!

Welcoming April is Clint checking out his plot.
