the garden is a huge part of our home life during the spring, summer & fall months. we provide vegetables, herbs, flowers & eggs to a small group of families during the summer months so most of our day is spent weeding, watering, planting & harvesting in the garden.
during the spring & summer months, in celebration of gardening, i am going to share a garden overview of what our garden looks like along with what we plan to plant throughout the month!
the garden – may 2015
we are eating fresh salads every evening. spinach, lettuce, kale & radishes are bountiful!
the onions are coming in nicely. we’re excited to replenish our pantry with this staple.
we anxiously await cabbage & broccoli from the garden! this might be our best crop yet (we covered the plants with row cover until they were nice & strong to prevent pest problems early on)!
we are enjoying sautéed garlicky swiss chard for dinner! the sugar snaps are slowly growing & soon we’ll have fresh peas for snack time.
we also just finished planting all of our flowers for the season! the garden is going to be so colorful!
what does your garden look like in may? please share!
love,
natalie
