The Home-Grown Project, Day 40

I never knew I had such green thumbs.

Other than the first plant­ing of French Breakfast and Cherry Belle radishes, which I’ve har­vested, every­thing is still in the ground and doing well. I’ll be har­vest­ing ici­cle and Easter egg radishes in about a week, and turnips not long after that. I’ll need to cut down the col­lards and do some­thing with those, too, while they’re still young and tasty.

If all the pep­per plants bear fruit, I’ll be up to my eye­balls in bells. Tomatoes, too. And don’t get me started on the zucchini.

I’ll write up some­thing a lit­tle later, but for now, here’s a brief pho­to­graphic tour of the progress I’m mak­ing in The Home-Grown Project.

Day 1: Gateway To The West

The weather was more Indiana-in-August-like than it had been in weeks, the kind of weather in which no mat­ter how high the A/C is set, you’re still clammy. I didn’t get as early a start today as I’d have liked, but I was up too late get­ting this site oper­a­tional to do any pack­ing, so by the time I hit Greenwood, Indiana, it was well past lunchtime, so a trip to Mrs. Curl Ice Cream Shoppe seemed like a good idea.
