Let us eat Lettuce!

Big Guy has been working hard on his garden. We are trying all kinds of vegetables this year as part of our grand experiment to see if we can be urban farmers.

We first tried lettuce last year and were successful in growing butter crisp and romaine. Our spinach was ok but was not as productive as the rest of the crop.

The best lesson we learned last year is lettuce is a spring and fall crop. We are thrilled that we are already harvesting our spring lettuce. It certainly makes you appreciate fresh vegetables and the work real farmers put into bringing us fresh food for our table!
