- Radishes
June 23, 2017
Hello to all,
To-date, the popcorn that we planted has not come up yet. I checked for the seeds and they were gone -which means BIRDS! Especially cowbirds and grackles. We might replant if we get the chance this weekend.
We have harvested 12 ½ lbs. of radishes and next week, we will hopefully have lettuce, more radishes, spinach, and green onions to harvest.
Some of the radishes and onions from our special culinary garden will be served on the salad bar at the hospital’s Main Station Café. The squash is making a comeback after an attack by Chucky – our resident woodchuck.
We have also decided to experiment with runner beans this year, and we are going to try to train them to climb up the sunflowers as support, doing away with fencing them. Let’s hope it works!
If you have any questions or want to work in the garden at a certain time, call 419.484.5421.
Thank you,
Patti Keller, RD, LD, CDE
