Hi fellow Weekenders,
This past weekend we made our first harvest!
First Harvest
One of the things that has been a bit of fun is having a garden growing on the deck. We have quite a few things growing and it's been some decent weather for stuff to grow, a lot of sun and warm temperatures so the plants aren't dying as long as we keep them watered.
The thing I like about growing things in a garden besides the knowledge of what's going into the food like fertilizer and other things, is having the little man around to help me every step of the way. He's getting good at keeping us on our toes with having the plants watered and fertilized! It's been paying off for sure, this was our first harvest from the garden and it was delicious. Lettuce apparently grows very fast and easily as long as you keep it watered and the dirt has the right nutrients up front. Our CSA, the farm share we bought, starts this week so we only grew a few of the heads of lettuce so that we don't have a lot of lettuce since we get a significant amount from the CSA's.
The little man was all too excited to help me harvest our first item! I was glad that we were able to keep these heads of lettuce alive, this one tasted fantastic and it filled two salad containers so I had dinner and then lunch the next day from just the one! He loves being able to do things on his own and I held the lettuce and he used, what he calls his, survival knife in order to harvest the head here. He did a great job!
