taming the wild


2012.07_garden things
It's always nice to see the garden after being away. Our little patch of 100 square feet really exploded. We harvested chamomile, tomatillos, beets, carrots, garlic, onions, onion flowers, green beans, arugula, basil, sage, thyme, lemon balm, chocolate mint, and dill seed–all in the same day. I love all the variety we are growing this year!

Note to fellow arugula farmers: While our arugula keeps bolting, we keep chopping it down to the base and eating the leaves. No problem. Maybe next time I'll try pickling the seed pods like capers.
