Yellow Flower

This little potted plant spends the whole year looking like some kind of weedy grass. But once a year it puts up a couple of these beautiful flowers.

Root Harvest

We harvested these beets and carrots today. These were planted at the end of October so these represent 20 weeks from seed to harvest.

This is about half of the harvest so we have a lot more in the ground from that plant date plus another whole batch that was planted 2 weeks after this batch!

Mess O'Greens

These are half of the beet greens I harvested today.

Sanctuary!

We had a visitor to the yard this morning. Maybe she was seeking sanctuary. As the little girl next door says "grandma kills the chicken, and turns it into chicken".

Compost Potato

This potato refused to accept the defeat of being tossed into the compost bin. I moved her into a nice sunny spot in the yard today and hope she will continue to grow.

First Beets

Here is the first beet we've grown this winter.
