I had to get out though as hubby has been going in town the last couple of days, so I haven't been able to get to the garden and check everything.
Anyway, I thought I'd share our second small harvest of broccoli.

Hubby got me that wicker basket at the flea market for $2!

As I said, I was a few days behind harvesting. We gave the neighbor - the one who told us about the tax problem - three heads of broccoli about the same size as these two. We blanched and froze ours.

I put my glasses here so you could judge the size of the heads. It rained again while I was harvesting, so I had taken them off to dry them.

These are the green beans I picked. That's a 2L jar next to the colander so you judge the size of it. That's home made jerky in the jar, by the way. I've been making our jerky since roughly 1975!
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
And Happy Mother's Day to any readers who are moms! ♥
It's amazing your picking so much so early!
ReplyDeleteBut then, I'm use to our short northern growing season. :-)
That's some good broccoli heads. Mine never came up. Replanted beans the other day, see what they do.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like enjoying something that you've grown yourself--Broccoli is one of my favorites, and your photos remind me of why!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great weekend too!!
I want some of that broccoli! Yum!
ReplyDeleteA nice broccoli harvest! It's wet, wet, wet here too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful crop!
ReplyDeleteThink back a year ago...did you ever dream you would be "putting up" your own produce?
Looks like a good harvest. Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteGeez... we won't have anything like this until August or later! Cool!
