Progress shot of the asparagus patch. It’s as bare as it is due to budgetary concerns. Or else I’d have this jam-packed with herbs and veg and leafy greens. The weather has been unseasonably cold and I planted a month late, so the strawberries aren’t anywhere near where I had imagined them to be- taking over the plot. Oh well. Maybe in a few months. I wonder if anyone local would let me use their rooting hormone on the runners.
•Italian pole beans that kindly reseeded themselves from last year’s 3 Sisters Patch
•Black&Pink beans that I sowed at the trellis
•There are 5 additional varieteis of bean planted: one variety at each pair of bamboo poles.
I still need to weave some places betwixt them for the wee beans to grab, but that’s for another day.

Look who grew overnight! And she’s two ft tall! Her leggy next-door-neighbor showed up yesterday at around 9 inches. #purplePassionAsparagus #purpleAsparagus #CulinaryGarden #kitchenGarden #asparagus #food #personalChef #farmToFork #farmToTable #growingAsparagus
I keep looking at the garden pictures like they’re baby pictures. It’s been like this all spring and summer. This is one of the #PurpleAsparagus plants yesterday afternoon, and then this morning. #TamludTeamAssemble : what’s the brucha for growing #asparagus ? #kitchenGarden #FarmToFork #PersonalChef #FarmToTable #culinaryGarden #JewApron #zone6 #food #foodcrop
#talmudTeamAssemble : As an agrarian people, surely we must have some prayers for sowing & growing, no? I called in a favor to get some free #purpleAsparaguscrowns and a few “medium” #saffroncorms to plant, and now I’m anxious for their well-being. #culinaryGarden #kitchenGarden I also think that I need to figure out a way to buy a half cubic meter of soil without any fertilizers. I want these #asparagusCrowns to have to work for their sustenance this first year, so that they can establish a strong foundation. That is, if they take. 🧿
Today was shallot harvest day for me. Some of these are huge this year! I got about 5 gallons worth. They’re now on drying racks to cure. #gardening #culinarygarden #gardentotable #food
