We harvested our first ears of corn (9!) today in celebration of Oliver’s birthday.  The first ear we ate raw right on the spot.  The kernals were still a little small but tasted sweet and tender.  We also had beet greens, beets, and collard greens from the farm with some smokey potato salad with Applefield’s potatoes.  What a fantastic dinner!

Today’s harvest:  Sweet 100 Tomatoes, French beans, broccoli, soy beans, 2 zucchini, eggplant, 2 beets, 2 carrots, 9 ears corn, collards, cilantro, basil, nasturtium flowers, onion greens

For the first time ever, we have strong, healthy beets forming nice round roots and big leafy greens!

Our first seedlings were released today.  The Beets and Georgia Collards were planted on this drizzly day.
