Fall Planting 10.13.13

Warm in the sun today, forecast the same.
Green beans doing their last. Planted summer-grown seeds of kale, radish, fava, parsley, cilantro, and pea. Serendipitous gift of elephant garlic, I shoved it into the ground too. Warmth will fool me as well as the seeds into extra action before true winter cold sets in.

Spring in the Community Garden

March First, a warm day. In that garden tucked by the freeway I found: bright winter greens beginning to bolt (the new lush growth delectable steamed), a pile of radishes gifted from a friend, my hat quickly filled with fresh-picked herbs, and volunteer mache growing up quick and buttery.
