Good Morning. I harvested garlic scapes and radishes this morning, between the rains. I think I will chop up and dry the scapes and maybe try fermenting some radishes to see if we like them. Next to harvest oregano and get that drying.
Good luck experimenting with your early harvest Michele. Do you have any recipes in mind yet for them?

Isn't it wonderful to start harvest :) Let us know how the fermented radishes turn out. I'm not a big fan of them, but my in laws always plant too many. That might be something to try!

Michele, your harvest sounds amazing! I can't wait until I can start collecting things from my garden. Good luck with fermenting your radishes.

Yesterdays harvest was sage, thyme and dill weed. Those are all dried now and going in jars this morning. The fermented radishes, well I dumped them. They smelled a bit funky, so I think I did not add enough salt to the jar. Oh well, don't know if you don't try.
