The potatoes have been in the ground since February and it's time for harvest. Our friend Josh helped dig (his first time to dig potatoes.) The harvest was smaller than last year, but the treasure hunt was still as great as always.
NOTE: My little friend Caleb helped do a test dig a couple of weeks ago to see if they were geting ready.
The time was right. Other friends from Santa Fe, Texas brought us some fresh squash, zucchini and South Carolina green beans. We had a feast for supper. Baked salmon patties, and right out of the garden veggies are impossible to beat. Did I mention potatoes? The meal was as colorful as it was tasteful.
I am always amazed at the joy a little dirt and some
friends bring to our lives. We'll plant more tomato plants and squash where the potatoes were.
The quarter inch rain Saturday filled all the rainbarrels and the reserve cans. We should be great for another week.
