We harvested the garlic a couple weeks ago....just in time as I ran out and actually had to buy it once!
We are still getting some greens, even with the heat. The rocky top salad mix has not bolted and is still pretty nice tasting. I just am now realizing I have not used any of the siamese dragon stir fry mix in a stir fry! Need to put that on the menu for next week...some of its bolted, but not all, and even if its a bit bitter, it should be fine in a stir fry (I think!).
We have been eating a ton of basil...making pesto and basil garlic vinagarette (usually used over a salad with goat cheese and cranberries, yum!). I am not such a fan of the lettuce leaf basil. It kept smelling anise-y and sort of cinnamon-y to me and I wasnt to happy with the flavor in the pesto. I later saw on P allen Smith's website that it does in fact have anise and sometimes cinnamon undertones. The sweet genovese is great though!
Peppers are starting to come in, as well as eggplants.
Sunflower house is all wonky, but they are getting ready to bloom.
The bean tepee didnt get wired off quick enough and the rabbits got it...Argh! And those were my yard long bean....chinese red noodle, that I was very excited about.
We are getting ready to start setting out plants for fall harvest. The neighbors started a bunch of broccoli, there son got seed happy and they have like hundreds, so we are taking some of theirs to plant:)
I hope to get some pics tomorrow. Thought I would at least sort of catch up while I had a minute:)
