First Harvest - Swiss Chard
Well this weekend is going to be OUT OF SIGHT HOT.....like heat index of 105. So we are staying indoors and I am taking the time to read up on preserving food! Anyhow, this morning I harvested my fist crop of swiss chard. (see pic) It is so great to know that this will serve as two dinners in the winter. If I haven't actually said this yet- my garden's objective is to supply my family with food this winter. I am part of a CSA for my weekly vegetables, so my garden is going to keep on giving -- when the cold winds of the winter has its hold on us! Abit of sunshine I say. Today off to Costco to buy a seal-n-saver.... :)

All of my garden harvest is to sustain my family. This year I am going to focus on finding the most efficient methods to minimize my time in the garden like growing drying beans (just let them grown and wait until the plant dies and pods dry!). I am a FT working mom with lots of schedules to juggle, so if I can grow all this food, you can too! Will update you on how this goes!
