Rah, Rah Radishes by April Pulley Sayre |
Even as area farmers struggle with the extraordinary heat and lack of rain, home vegetable gardeners who have tended their patches well are beginning to see some early harvests. This spring we built two raised bed gardens for growing vegetables in our back yard and they are now overflowing. We have already enjoyed radishes, swiss chard, and a few early cherry tomatoes. Zucchini, yellow squash, cucumbers, and more tomatoes are on their way. Even if you and your family did not plant vegetables this season you can visit one of our local farmers' markets
AND check out these wonderful picture books to enjoy the earth's bounty.
