How are things in the Vegetable Garden?

Last week it was in the 80's and I think one day topped 90 degrees.  That's too hot for this time of year.  The kale all bolted so today I pulled it up and have enough to share with several friends.  The greens, peas, carrots and beets are all growing but we need more rain.  There was a sudden rainstorm on Thurs night but it wasn't enough.  Here are pictures from today.  Everything looks so dry - I did water after taking the pictures.  There are potatoes planted but they haven't started coming up and I forgot to photograph the fava beans.

  1. Yum - looks like you're almost ready for a salad! I'm sucker for those baby radishes. They barely get past pea-size here....
