Our first Harvest!

Way back in late-March I planted some seeds to get our garden started... sadly the garden didn't get going in enough time to plant the seeds that sprouted (which wasn't many!).

So once we got our act together, and had dumped a few loads of compost onto the garden we planted another round of seeds. Followed by some crummy and unseasonal cold weather not much happened there either... but a few seeds did sprout, and so, our first harvest:
Our First Garden Harvest
A handful of green beans, some delicious breakfast radishes, and a handful of cherry tomatoes.

Fortunately we got in another planting just in time for some real summer weather, and these seeds have finally taken, with the promise of a decent harvest later in the month!

This is my first gardening experience, in probably a good ten years, so despite the lackluster first harvest, I'm pretty please with the potential!

Yay- Good job! It's fun to have a tiny harvest...

I planted some radishes, but unfortunately our backyard is prone to flooding, and my garden drowned. So sad :/
