Rainy afternoon, backyard #homegrown #food #harvest.
Mixed #AsianGreens - #chard / #bokchoy / #MustardGreens.
These are Asian greens that we grow & harvest as needed, year round. They are put under light covers in the colder Winter months. I keep their bases well mulched during Winter & they do just fine.

Morning transplanting is done 👩‍🌾💚👍
There's bok choy, sui choy, Chinese mustard greens & baby bok choy.
All transplanted to remediated soil area - it used to be lawn grass with crappy soil with too much clay. Now, I'm growing food on it 😁

Transplanted some of my #BokChoy & purple #tomatillo plants into larger pots. These starters are all being picked up this weekend by a few of my regular plant buyers here. There's some folks who get plants from me, every year 👩‍🌾

Our house smells so yummy right now. Wonton is being cooked at the moment. The crispy chow mein is done & set aside with the vegetables.
We made two of my nephew's fave foods for his 2nd birthday gathering here. He will be coming over in just over an hour 💗

#PakChoi #plants in 3 gallon pots.
“Pak Choi” translates to “white vegetable” in Cantonese due to their white stems. Cultivation began in the #YangtzeRiver Delta region & spread to other parts of Asia, thanks to traders & migrating populations.

Pak choi looks almost identical to bok choy but they're two different plants. Pak choi has darker leaves as it matures. Pak choi stems are white, more visibly so when matured. Bok choy stems are pale green. Pak choi has more of a peppery undertone taste, while bok choy has subtle sweetness. We grow both of these similar plants in our backyard food gardens.

I have 3 blueberry plants & only one has produced berries so far.

#Flowers from my #NanLingCutting #celery #plant 👩‍🌾
I do succession planting so as this one goes to flower & seed, more celery is growing for us to keep harvesting.

My spinach photo is from May 17–I wish now I had taken one today, because the three plants completely filled the pocket.

So…I harvested 3 spinach plants from my GreenStalk and steamed them for dinner! I added in a leaf each of Komatsuna, chijimisai, and summer mizuna, then three little sprigs of marjoram. The plant in the back of the pocket was starting to bolt, so I only took its smallest leaves.
