One of the biggest things that gardening has been teaching me is PATIENCE. You have no choice but to be patient when you are growing your own vegetables and herbs!
But look, we’re starting to see some growth in the garden!

Pea shoots and carrot tops (when they get a little bigger, I will need to thin them out)

Baby cherry tomatoes and basil
Baby spinach plants and zucchini blossoms

Baby kale plants (!!!) and chives

Calendula…aka edible flowers
I think the prettiest vegetable plants in the garden are the brussels sprouts. Not to mention how tasty they’ll be when I can harvest them and roast them up.

I’m so excited to see things start to blossom and set fruit more and more! Some of the things I am growing are already in season and available in the farmer’s market, but aren’t doing much in my garden. I keep reminding myself that we planted our garden a little late this year, and that I just need to wait it out… I’ll get my homegrown vegetables and herbs soon enough!
