French Baby Carrots

Today, we went to thin our carrots and were pleased to find some quite large ones ready to eat. This is a variety of seeds we planted of yellow and orange Babette carrots back in April over any area of about 3' x 4'. There is something really yummy about the smell of a carrot still covered with dirt, cant get fresher then that - we will have these with dinner tonight and many more to come!








Our Baby Romaine lettuce is in full bloom and after carrot thinning, we decided to harvest some for dinner. Dante had the fantastic idea of using his dump truck to carry the lettuce as he picked it so it could easily be transported from farm to kitchen. After picking the lettuce, he used his toy garbage truck to carry weeds away. Such a good helper!
