MORNING HARVEST

Morning is the usual time for Mary to go out and harvest the greens for our daily salad.

Pea shoots are a delightful addition to our salads; something we had never thought to add until this year.

Mary picks only the outer lettuce leaves which allows the plant to continue to produce and give us greens throughout the growing season.

Doesn't that look delicious?

Onions give any salad an added punch and we are now able to harvest our first "Dutch Sets" Almost time to do a second planting so we will have a continuous supply throughout the summer.

Our first picking of beet greens. We take just enough so we don't kill the plant as we look forward to the beets in August.

Time to make my smoothie then head to Toronto.

Safe travels everyone and thanks for stopping by.
