Sun, May 31: First green bean harvest

This may not look like much but they came from our garden! These are the first of the 9 Blue Lake Bush Beans that were put into the ground on March 28. There are about 2 or 3 times this many beans left on the same plants. I've also followed the advice on the seed package which advises that we should plant a subsequent crop. There are now 8 new squares of green beans growing and another 2 squares of a soybean variety called "Beer Friend."

There were actually enough from this harvest to make a nice dinner for the family. Yoel made a minced beef, basil (also picked fresh from the garden) and green beans dish that we ate over rice. Yummy. Green beans fresh picked from the garden. Wow!
