Another Harvest Today!


I guess when I was watering our community garden plot yesterday I overlooked a few squash.  Of course, with this weather they could have doubled their size in the 30 hours since I was there.  Anyway, just a few photos to share to keep my journal updated.


Cocozelle round zucchini squash, a few Japanese eggplants, 3 Patty Pan squash, Kale, and Beans.  One Asian cucumber that was rolled up so tight against the back of the wood frame that I first thought it was a snake! No kidding, I jumped back about two feet when I was bending down to move the vines. EEEK!


 The green beans are Kentucky Wonder and then a few Purple Pod Pole Beans.

 Calabacitas con Maiz will be on the menu later this week


Nice batch of Lacinato Kale for dinner tonight, I think I will make Peruano Beans and Greens.

  3. Hi Carla,

    So happy to meet you!

    Your colourful harvest, and the way you've styled it, is both artistic and appetizing! Yes, I can see how that Asian cuke could have passed for a snake - yikes! Enjoy the fruits of your labour!
