Today is Lughnasadh or Lammas – a celebration of the early harvest.

A few weeks ago I wrote about how much food to plant to feed your family for a year. This is how it’s starting to pile up.

Here’s a look at one bed, and what I harvested today: one savoy cabbage, green and yellow bush beans, the last of the shelling peas, a bowl of basil leaves, purple top globe turnips, yellow, white and green patty pans, two cucumbers, yellow and green zucchini. And some went to the good folks who provide me with growing space.

Wishing everyone a bountiful early harvest. Ava
