WALLA WALLA SWEET ONIONS

new things in the garden, part two::

i don't know why we'd never grown onions before. these sweet walla wallas were super easy and very successful. i'll grow a couple extra rows next year and definitely seed in some red onions as well.

 

POTATOES OUT

organic russets and organic red chieftains from high mowing organic seeds::

i think i may try these in containers next season. i read something somewhere about it and it seems like a good idea. i'm almost certain i missed some out there. 

 

MOUSE MELONS

new things in the garden, part one::

these are mouse melons. tiny little cucumbers that look like miniature watermelons. they are still producing! pick them when they are little for a more mellow flavor. they are delicious and the perfect pop of cucumber. i grew them on the trellis with the rest of the cukes and string beans. i am in love. they will be a staple now for sure.
