There is nothing better fresh from the garden than carrots. We harvested our first two carrots from the garden yesterday evening. The taste was wonderful; crisp and slightly sweet.
Our beans are doing really well this week. These photos are actually from last weekend. They are about 3 feet high now!
A couple of weeks back, they started to get some yellowish spots on them. Katie made up a batch of compost tea with fish meal and yard clippings and let it steep over night in a 5 gallon bucket. We diluted it a little and poured it around the beans the next day.
They quickly perked up and now they look very happy, reaching for the sun as they twist around the bamboo tripod we made for them. We just hope they don't sprout beans before we get back from our trip to Florida this week!
