I tromped (walked delicately) through the zucchini rows today trying to find a submarine-sized zuke that Rose and crew might have left behind. No luck, of course. Everything left was perfectly under 6".

No season is complete without a sunflower photo. This one shows two things: it is terribly dry up there on the ridge and I'm not the only one who can't bear to pull up volunteer flowers.

And the kholrabi get all artsy-farsty on us.

Fresh Harvest Home Romaine makes a great bread-substitute. Shown here brimming with curried chicken salad with walnuts and Zantes currants. Tidier (no crumbs) and tastier than pita bread.

Life Begins in the Greenhouse

The nursery at Harvest Home Organics, where Rose tends her little ones. Luckily, they are an orderly and well-behaved bunch.
