Boo-Ya

And that, my friends, is how you harvest some strawberries. 

Harvest time!

Matilde and I enjoyed harvesting our first of the strawberries!  After she dropped all of them and then stepped on two, we brought in about a dozen. They are delicious, sweet and juicy. Well worth the wait and there are PLENTY more where they came from just waiting for the sun to ripen them to perfection. 🍓🍓🍓

Almost there!

Well, this berry anyway, but where there is one there will soon be many! Matilde has already "called" this one, so the rest of us will have to wait to taste the sweet juice of an organic homegrown strawberry. 

Strawberries

The strawberries returned this year and they are bigger than ever! The plants not the berries... I'm not sure, but I feel like we should be seeing little green berry nubs by now. Isn't the end of June strawberry season?  Maybe I'm just a tad antsy and anxious for those sweet little berries. *sigh* 

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

One of the last strawberries of the season. Very sweet.  Very red.  Worth the wait. 

Our first taste of the corn we grew. It was so sweet and delicious!  Thank you Gary for advising us to only pick when we are ready to eat it in order to retain the natural sweetness of the plant. We appreciate the tips!  Everyone is welcome to pass them along! 

Jen has been begging for some salsa.  We are another small step closer to filling her order! 

Oni-oni-ons!

They're growing very well in the wonderful sunshine we have been experiencing!
