Garden Update

The kitchen garden is still thriving. I've harvested enough basil, oregano, chives and thyme to last the rest of the year.

It's way past strawberry season now, but ours are still producing every week.

The artichoke is doing well, too.

We've picked all the radishes, but the basil is still producing so much I'm going to start drying some for the neighbors now.

The pole beans also didn't get the end of their season memo.

I'll pick these and cook them up for dinner tonight. So much fun.

I'm jealous of your artichoke. It just got way too hot here the year I grew some and they died. But you've given me an idea to grow them in pots so I could move them to shadier locations when it gets unbearable.

I'm curious of your radishes. Are they sweet or spicy? Mine always end up too hot despite the extra long spring and rain of 2021. I've yet to discover the secret to growing mild radishes.

I'm jealous. My garden is nothing but grass and I'm still more than a week behind on everything so no garden this year :(

You've had enough to deal with this year, pal. Give yourself a pass.

I hope that works out with the artichoke for you. The radishes so far have been very crisp and mild to medium spicy (the secret with this variety seems to be letting them get big. Smaller =spicier.)
