Dec 21 On the First Day of Winter: Soon and Now

On the first day of winter here’s a look at my garden now and what’s to come. Arugula will be ready to harvest in a few days.

Jacaranda broccoli (from Territorial Seed Company) and Premium Crop broccoli. The heads are enlarging and will be ready soon.

Little Gem lettuce and Dark Red Lolla Rossa lettuce, harvesting now.

Mesclun lettuce mix and Outredgeous lettuce.

Golden Sweet Snow Peas

Easter Egg II radishes and my lunch salad.

Satsuma tangerines—a bumper crop this winter.

Thankful to be able to grow a garden 52 weeks of the year.
