It's Harvest Time ..................................


The cabbage did fairly well although we have grown larger heads. We'll be eating alot of cooked cabbage and coleslaw this month.


The carrots didn't grow very long ..........


but they're sweet , delicious and Little Froggy and I love them.


I harvested all the lettuce and can't wait to grow more this Fall.

~ Yummy Homegrown Salads ~


We've been eating many homegrown salads lately , they sure are yummy. I had 3 out of 6 cauliflowers that did really well , this one measured about 8 inches wide. Last year I tried to grow cauliflower but it didn't head at all , so I'm really proud of this one.



The side sprouts from the broccoli are going into the salad bowl. They're really tender and perfect for eating raw.


This was the first year I grew romaine lettuce and I've been really pleased with it. I'll definitely grow more next year. I've actually been considering building a greenhouse , we could probably grow lettuce all winter in our climate.


We're about to finish up the radishes , they've added a little zing ...... to the salad bowl.


A few small kale leaves and leaf lettuce mix rounded out this salad. Ummm ~ so good !
