After the blueberries were picked and delivered to the house, we made our way to the farm to pick all of the green beans ready for picking. It was quite a search and rescue scavenger hunt to find the matured beans in the bean vine arbor they created because we planted the rows WAY too close together... Plus it was hot and we were both in close quarters wedged between the beans and the corn on one side and the beans and the peas on the other long side. But, we managed through it... (even though child labor would have been easier to get to the beans).
We also picked some other things... Funny cherry tomato!
Plus my ONE lone cabbage that made it... out of 7 original plants!
The purple hulled pea pods are starting to turn purple... Maybe a week or so and will be covered up in picking, shelling and freezing peas!
I would say the harvest was quite bountiful on Saturday!
The harvest made a great passenger on the way home... so much that I called my Mother to come over and help us snap beans Saturday evening. And then we stopped by the veggie stand in town and scored a little over half a bushel of zipper peas!
To say the least, we had our work cut out for us!
