This week we picked:
Sugar Snap and Oregon Giant Snow peas – over 6 litres of them!!
Baby Beets and Market Express Turnip
Red and Spanish Onion
Early broccoli (it started to bolt before the heads got big so we ate it anyways!)
Garlic Scapes
Rhubarb
Kale, Swiss Chard, Lettuce
Herbs – Chives, Sage, Thyme, Oregano, Parsley, Basil, Mint
We picked the last of the Strawberries and Haskaps (single tear…they will be missed!)
We also tried some edible flowers – the Lavender is wonderful as a tea, the nasturtium was not a taste I enjoyed and I am still not sure about Calundula petals…..
Approx savings compared to local market: $98.35 (Total $435.25 since 26 May)
Total weight picked this week: 15.11 pounds (Total since 26 May – 79.42 pounds, which is more than my wee girl weighs!)
This week we planted:
A few extra Marketmore 76 cucumbers to fill some gaps
Replanted Laurentian Turnip for the fall because the pheasants ate all of the seedlings….
From our garden to yours, have a great week!
