This is my very first Harvest Monday post hosted by Daphne’s Dandelions!!! Daphne hosts these Monday posts by not only blogging about what she has harvested, but by also allowing fellow bloggers to add their names to her post as well so we can all see what each of us is up to!
While there are really not many items ready to harvest in the garden yet (beyond the wonderful greens of spring), I thought this might be a good time to start posting!
This week we harvested:
6oz of spinach
1lb 5oz of mixed lettuce
4oz of kale
 |
| There’s nothing quite like fresh picked spinach in…well, anything! |
In harvesting all that lettuce, we pulled many of the plants (they were getting too bitter) and gave it to the chickens. I left one of each kind, though, to allow it to go to seed.
Remarkably, the spinach is still going strong and I am hopeful I can get another few weeks out of it before replacing it with turnips and broccoli!
Happy harvesting!
Spinach, spinach, everywhere spinach! It’s good thing we like it!!! 😉
I’ve been putting spinach in everything too. I still need to make a quiche at some point.
Those spinach leaves are huge! good for you!
Beautiful spinach leaves. Looks nice and healthy.:-) Welcome to the harvest roll!
That looks like some big spinach leaves!
