This is the first year our Shiro plum trees have fruited - we planted them last year, so we feel pretty good about that!
In addition to the harvest from our two trees - we were also welcomed to harvest from a North Seattle community member and will be providing plums to our CSA folks this week!
A cool part of our work is creating win-win situations - too much fruit, or fruit that's tough to get to - we got it! And everything the owner and passers-by can reach is left behind. What's not usable is collected for the chickens.

Harvest those π

at first blush and let them ripen on your counter. No loss to nutrients or flavor for the actual tomato. Plus, your plant can start focusing on the next round of tomatoes.

In July 2020 I had a fun time experiencing anaphylactic shock from a bee sting, so I don't venture too far into the greenhouse or deep into the outdoor gardens during full bloom. And yet, I am always amazed and pleased and overjoyed at the hard work Jon gets done in here, the beauty of this space and how abundant it is.

Harvesting garlic scapes - it's a snap!!
Thanks to our friend Kevin or Chipping Twig for allowing us to come in and harvest a bit.

It takes 3 years for Elephant garlic to rise and shine - so save and replant those little babies (corms) to start the growth cycle. It takes patience, but isn't that what growing food is about?? It'll be worth it.

The Ozette potato, also known as the Makah Ozette or Anna Cheeka's Ozette, is a rare, heirloom fingerling potato that originated in the central Andes of South America and is the oldest variety of potato grown in the Pacific Northwest.
They are flavorful and make a wonderful addition to any meal - a true staple of our region, but less and less available thru traditional avenues. If you can get your hands on some - get them started and then saved for future use.
