The 4th of July weekend was a sizzler!  Mid 80’s is a bit much for us, especially when we’re trying to take advantage of the time off work to catch up on weeding, mowing, and planting. 

I ran into a great nursery website from the name tag for the started Snow Peas I purchased at Christiansen’s last month.  The website is sunseedfarm.com.   What I really like is the local planting chart they provide there.  I’ve added the link to our website on the left side of the screen.  Check it out if you haven’t already done so.  I’ve posted a picture of the Snow Peas shown below.  The variety is called Oregon Giant.

How many pea pods can you count?

I’m really happy with the red leaf lettuce shown on this picture as well.  I’ve been harvesting it daily for dinner salads.  It has a lovely crisp texture, but of course its so fresh it hardly knows its been picked.
