Garden: Some Updates

My Arugula is bolting already :( Oh well, Malabar spinach will replace it :)

I just planted some new plants in the lambs quarters family.  If you haven't heard of Baker's Creek Heirloom Seeds, you should check them out. They have an awesome variety of plant seeds.

Detroit Beets are coming in nicely. I cannot wait to harvest them.

Green blueberries, I hope the birds will leave me some this year.

I transplanted some wild purslane from my yard into a bowl. Supposedly it's great in salad.

First Red Current!

Foraging: Chicken of the Woods Mushroom, 3 deer murshrooms

Large Chicken of the Woods and 3 Faun Mushrooms
