Garden Harvest
3:52 PMWe have been enjoying our garden as we have been getting our first harvests
Our broccoli and spinach didn't do so well, and not everything is ready yet
But so far, we have harvested: tomatoes, potatoes, romaine, spring mix, green chili, yellow squash, zucchini, basil, parsley, cilantro.
One Sunday dinner, we had some family over and we ate chicken kabobs with squash and zucchini from our garden, grilled red potatoes from our garden, and salad with lettuce (both romaine and spring mix) and tomatoes from our garden! It was really neat to be able to add so many components to the meal from stuff we actually grew. I loved it!
Brett's dad planted a family fruit orchard a few years ago. The whole purpose, is just for the family to be able to pick and eat the fruit. We have been getting apricots, peaches, and nectarines so far. They are so delicious! Landon and Vivienne love helping and we fill up big bags to bring home. When we eat outside in the summer evening, I just load up a big platter of watermelon triangles and fruit from the family orchard and we all chow down.
And our chickens have been laying eggs like crazy.
