@Dutchs Thanks, just what I needed to make my mouth water.

 

[Bacpacker]

All I've harvested has been some green onions (reds and yellows). and man are they good.
Won't be too long and we'll get started with Blueberries and Mulberries and cabbage

Damn! I was sooooo looking forward to my Green Onions...I love them. I planted Bunching onions twice this year and neither group even sprouted? Very weird. Everything else except Eggplant and Garlic look incredible......

 

[Tank-Girl]

They look amazing Dutch!

No harvest for me except spring onions and a few herbs.

 

[Amish Heart]

Lettuce, spinach, and some basil leaves for tonights meal

I've picked about 5 gallons of green beans this week once trimmed up for the freezer, about 80-85 lbs pickling cucumbers made into pickles and relish, just yesterday started picking slicing cukes but only 3, 6 patty squash and 1 yellow squash and almost forgot 6 red onions . I took a pic with my dump phone to send hunny but didn't take one on this tablet.

I’m getting onions, but they didn’t make any size. They headed out too soon. They are little but good. Tomatoes and green beans soon.

 

[Weedygarden]

Not yet, but I need to harvest my rhubarb today. We have had a wet spring in between some 80+ degree days and the rhubarb is loving it.

 

[WVDragonlady]

Just some onion and garlic chives that wintered over
Flat leaf parsley is almost ready to start cutting some

Now that's funny! Maybe not to you but it is to us.......

 

[Terri9630]

Bacon seeds...

 

[Bacpacker]

Good lookin porkers you got there. If you don't mind me asking, What breed pigs are those? How big is your pen?

 

[NannyPatty]

Harvested a couple big plants of poke sallet today and plan on getting more tomorrow. It’s almost too late.

 

[Woody]

Harvested a small Spinach salad tonight, tasty. One small radish in it, just because I am impatient. I can't believe how slow the radishes are going this year, sheesh. I put them in in mid-March!

Carrots are a couple weeks away, rest of the radishes are about a week away. I should be able to get a salad twice a week starting next week. I have limited growing area or it would be more.

Peas don't even have blossoms yet! I had to put pole bean seeds in with them today or we won't have beans until fall the way this season is going here. The pole beans around the deck are about a foot tall and ready to start jumping. Cucumbers and squash are going fine.

The black and white is a hamp cross that we bought for the kids 4-H project. The other is a mutt feeder pig we bought to keep the black and white company. Our garden is 35x35. We aren't planting anything this year so they have the whole thing.

 

[Dutchs]

I love squash steamed with butter and salt.

 

[Meerkat]

all looks great Y'all. I see blackberries already on bushes. They are wild here and lots of them. We were really late this year getting spring planting but hugelkultur mound is looking promising, built it about 3 years ago and first time planting now.

Woohoo!! Squash in the frying pan is Awesome! It is also just better when it's straight from the garden! Thanks TG......

 

[Bacpacker]

Looks good Dutchs. Our blackberries are just now blooming. But we will be picking blueberries within a handful of weeks. Mulberries as well.

 

[SheepDog]

4 quarts of strawberries, a couple of pounds of chives, ad a pound of oregano. The strawberries are just starting, we will be harvesting 4 quarts twice a week befor long and it will continue into September.

 

[Sewingcreations15]

Have to think on what we have harvested which is quite a bit since the beginning of the year.

16.5 bunches of silver beet, about 3kg of beetroot, about 25kg of cucumbers, 2 x 9lt buckets of sage, 1 x 9lt bucket of rosemary, 1 x bucket of both mixed French and English lavender blossoms and a few strawberries. Today we picked half a wheelbarrow load of sweet potatoes that we will store in our makeshift root cellar.

 

[Dutchs]

Holy Kasmoly! A 16 qt. Pot full to the top of slicing, dicing, mashing turnips. And a full size bowl of snacking salad size turnips. These will last a long time. 2/3 getting dehydrated and 1/3 gonna use fresh and grate for mashed. Them the little guys for fresh eating and salsfs!

 

[Sewingcreations15]

@Dutchs if you have a large freezer I would blanch and freeze them and put them in meal sized portions. See this website and scroll 3/4's of the way down the page for freezing instructions, just click on the type of vegetable you are processing and it gives you instructions .

Here is the link - http://www.pickyourown.org/allaboutcanning.htm .

This is what we do and our large harvests then last us a year for food for the two of us. Yep we have a 7.2lt steamer pot and fill that numerous times for many processing sessions throughout the year.

 

[Dutchs]

I just have no words. I'll have this many next week too... And zucchinni will be ready. Thank God I only planted five zucchinni plants.
