Broccoli! These are doing awesome. The strange absence of bugs this year also includes cabbage moths and such so maybe we
won't have a huge problem with them this year. I plan on harvesting and freezing these in June and another rotation in the fall. Yum. Also,
Lil'Bug says we will find June Bug in
the broccoli bed and that will be her birth day- just like we found her in the pumpkin patch 4 years ago, in Narnia, in Heaven. Ah, the creation story of a wee babe.
Yum. Spinach. I will have my first garden fresh spinach salad tomorrow and then use some for lasagnas to freeze for the first week June Bug babe is home.
The other part of my salad mix: lettuce and various greens. So tender are they when fresh and young. Drool....
Strawberriest blossoms. Two different kinds. Lovely with morning dew......or wait...no
Lil'Bug do not spray Mama with the hose while I have the camera out here!
AGH!
And last....we planted blueberries. Again. We are the gardeners of ever innocent hopefulness. Every blueberry plant we have ever planted has died. This one has blossoms!
Ok, to be fair, it came with the the blossom buds, but still!
