This weeks harvest contains a bunch of the same ol’ same ol’ mixed with a pinch of exciting news!
Kale – 12oz
The three over wintered kale plants I left in are still going strong with no signs of stopping. This may be an experiment in the making…
This has been dehydrated for future use in stews.
Spinach – 13oz
I have pulled all the spinach (it was going to seed…hybrid seeds that i am not interested in keeping for future use) and am going to plant some bush beans to heal the soil a bit before my fall planting.
This was blanched and frozen for future use.

We also had a single carrot that was left in the bed when the spinach seeds went in. When I pulled all the spinach out to prepare the bed for the next round, the carrot had to go, too. Fish Girl stated that it was “a little bitter, but mostly good”. Well, I’d be bitter too if I’d been forgotten for months 😉
Harvest Monday is hosted by Daphne at daphnesdandelions. Check out what she’s harvesting, as well as what many, many others are harvesting, as well!
Happy harvesting!!!
I really can’t wait to pull out my garlic! I want to see how it’s going. Oooh, the wait is so hard!
I’m so curious to know how my garlic is doing as well! But I don’t have much, so I don’t want to pull any! Your harvest looks good!
Nice garlic! The spinach looks so yummy.
I envy those 8 cloves of garlic you have! Mine doesn’t seem to have done well this year 🙁
I hope your kale lasts for you. Mine went to seed really early in the year.
See now that is about all the garlic I would get on a good year anyway. 🙂
Oooh! Your garlic is so cute:) I like the way you planted spinach so closely packed!
Wish we have that many spinach;-). Congrats on your first garlic the rest will assuredly growing well in gives many cloves too.
