I'm with you SKR8PN, we harvested our first batch of green beans last week, already ready for a second picking, and so are my peas. We picked our first bell pepper, and the tomatoes aren't far off...harvested a few strawberries that were YUMM-O and cukes are piled on my table!!

LOVE fresh garden stuff!

Oh and I've picked one brocolli crown already with more ready!!

That sounds SOOOO GOOOOOD! I love it when you can make a meal and it all was raised at home.
I have green beaned my family to death in the last two weeks so tonight we are having brown beans, cornbread, fried potatoes and greens. I will be picking green beans again by Friday. They seem to be doing well this year.
