Garden snacks

We're just starting to harvest some of our garden treats.  How exciting!  Max and Ginger each picked a radish a few days ago.  I have no idea why Max decided to pose with it on its head.  Oh right, 'cuz he's four!  Ginger happily shows off the radish she refuses to eat. 
One of the fun things about growing your own is the irregularities.  Notice that some of the radishes look like a funky shape!  These irregulars would probably never make it to the store or the farmer's market stand but we ate them just fine!  We ate them along side butter lettuce greens, which I forgot to photograph.
We also cooked up the radish greens with some olive oil and salt & pepper. 



In other garden fun, we harvested our first kale, and some of our trustee volunteer chard ...
... and made a fresh batch of mean green juice for breakfast!
