      Nearly all our food goes into our CSA boxes. On Mondays if there is any left over I take it to the school where I drop off the boxes and sell to the parents. Today it was cucumber and lettuce That was in abundant supply and I was able to sell most of it.

    It all looks so wonderful Kate. It does make me excited for my spring garden to start producing.
    It that an outdoor oven you're working on? I would love to make one here. Guess I need to wait for your next post. :)

    Love your work Kate! WE had 30-40 rockmelons this season but the majority of them were bitten by some nasty borer of sorts, so we only harvested about half a dozen. We did get lovely rockmelon flavoured eggs for weeks
