GARDEN UPDATE

Hi all,

Some new items are ready to harvest and then there are some that are really really ready to harvest. Also, the harvest study signs are getting tidied up a bit, so you should be able to record everything this week using the signs and a dry erase pen (it's a bit easier to use and to erase).

The upcoming workdays are posted herehttp://monticellocommunitygarden.com/participate/. (This Saturday June 22, 10:30-11:30a & next Thursday June 27, 6:30-7:30p)

Here's a new item ready to pick (cherry belle and french breakfast RADISH). You can generally tell which ones are ready just by looking at their tops under the leafy green part -- a lot of them are a good size, some are still a bit small. Also up next: PEAS! (if you want the pods they are ready; if you want the peas might have to wait a bit). GREENS are so so ready (chard, kale, collards for cooked greens and all of the lettuces are ready for salad -- really good). Just remember for the greens just cut them at the base and leave the roots intact.

Remember there's a way to post recipes if you'd like share some by sending to this address: pbm+r-porter+zs4cgb@squarespace.com
