Day 47

Happy 4th of July!!!  Today we had an excellent work party in the garden.  Starting at 9am people came up to the garden to help plant tomatoes and onions, weed, thin, and harvest!  With advertising by word of mouth and through the message board, about eight or nine people showed up enthusiastically.  We accomplished lots of things I have been meaning to do but lacking the time for, and the garden is happy for all the help.  There are now more cherry tomatoes in the ground, more green onions, thinned swiss chard and beets and much more!  Thanks so much for the help everyone! 

Best of all, we were able to harvest a bounty that we will likely eat tomorrow night for dinner.  There was almost a bushel and a half of greens, the first few beets, radishes, the last of the kohlrabi, and the first of the green onions.  Delicious!
