Garden Update

Apparently we must have done something right for our first year in the garden. We've had an abundance of Romaine and Red leaf lettuces, radishes, zucchinis, (and we've heard the jokes about Mormon's and zucchini,) summer squashes, carrots, and finally our tomatoes are turning red. Our peas came and went, and our radishes are burning out too. It's been a wonderful harvest so far!


I took the picture below to show the size of 1 of 4 zucchini's we picked. We hadn't been out to the garden for about 3 days, and this is what we found. My hand is 6.5-7 inches long and 3 inches wide. Yep, the zucchini, it's big.




I snuck in a pic of our first reddening tomato. We've been waiting patiently and now we're reaping the rewards. Just yesterday we picked 6 tomatoes. YUMMY!



We weren't dressed up as farmers just to pick veggies from the garden. Actually, we were dressed up for Beau's birthday party (refer to above). Can you tell how happy we are to have free food in our backyard?
