| Detail on Peas |
Recently, we've harvested some sugar snap peas. You can pick them right off the vine and chew away! Tastes beautiful and fresh, and would taste even better in a salad or stirfry. The carrots have grown large and huge, hopefully in a week or two they'll be large and pretty. We've planted pumpkin, squash, and watermelon for fall/summer harvest, and Toby plans to show off our work at graduation with a salad.
It's been a blast writing the blog and working at the garden. I would suggest for anyone interested in tasting good food and saving a lot of money to do some gardening. With our little plot we have easily made a pound of veggies or more, and that is only in a month or so time. During the summer we'll be planting corn, and the tomatoes will come to fruition, adding to our insanely productive semester.
It was a surprise that the peas grew so well and tasty. They grip the trellises like two lovers under the sun, embracing to seek the day. The strawberries have done coming to fruition, but the plant still thrives- possibly next year we'll have more flowers, and more plants, and more strawberries! The same happens to peas and carrots and all the other plants, it's amazing how sustainable a package of seeds could be. The future looks bright for our little garden.
