greens

The real trick is to have these greens reach you on Saturday looking as nice as when I cut them on Friday.  It is something of a nightmare when the temp is 92 degrees. They want to wilt within minutes!

        Asian Braising Greens, tedious to harvest since each leaf must be cut individually, as not all leaves are good. All the leaves on the ground are rejects.

Soil is bone dry, then yesterday some rain fell, too little too late.

We pulled some sweet turnips on Friday.  The green tops make for good eating so don't throw them away!

Aunt Ada's pole beans are barely putting out, just too dry.

Grasshoppers are taking over, not quite the Biblical proportions of Exodus..........here making more grasshoppers.
