Today was a very beautiful day. We only got to work with Bear and Suzie because Jay was at a fishing convention. We pulled all the dead lavender plants from last years harvest. The lavender still smelled so serene and nice. Then we went on to the rhubarb and artichoke plants again. This time we took out all the old artichoke plants, but we saved three to plant in another bed. We also pulled the weeds up and added some composted soil. It was really interesting to see how they were planted. They were placed in these metal baskets that helps the plant stay in its place.
Last week Suzie told us that we were going to try asparagus. So we did and she called it the asparagus challenge. When you eat it your hands have to behind your back and all can use is your mouth. I'm a very picky eater so I stepped out of my comfort zone to try it. I didn't really like it though. We also tried some lettuce and an Asian spinach leaf. My favorite thing was the carrot we tried. It was so sweet and delicious. The crunch was perfect. Overall I had a great day.
