Harvests!

 
We came back from our camping/track/painting long weekend in Eugene (to be posted about later) and there was much to harvest in the garden! We have WAY more lettuce, spinach, arugula, etc than we could ever eat! I bagged it all up and gave a gallon sized bag to one of the neighbors. We have 2 left (plus 2 more bags I picked today!) Luckily, my neighbor was happy to receive it, so I think I can pawn more off on her later this summer! Most of the lettuce is picked by now...I didn't really mean to plant so much, but after the cat attacked my garden, I planted A LOT extra, just in case. Well, it ALL grew! It's been delicious, but salad greens don't store for very long...
Anyways, as I'm getting into this whole gardening thing I've decided to try and grow a few things over the fall/winter. I have some good plans for onions, carrots, beets, and GARLIC! Can't wait.
But first...my tomatoes, peppers and spring carrots need to GROW! :)
