This is the large hoophouse that is providing the Salad Mix, Bok Choi, Radishes, and Spinach.  The far left is 6 varieties of mini-heads of lettuce, and the same variety of Salanova– a new breed of salad greens from Johnny’s Select Seed.  Next to it is radishes and turnips in the foreground, and to the right of that in the foreground is the spinach that has been harvested clean.  To the far right is the second planting of spinach that will be ready as baby leaf in a week to ten days.

All of these goodies are available at Bee Healthy.  Radishes and Salad Mix prices have dropped–WE NEED TO MOVE THEM!  Upcoming is Japanese salad turnips, kale, swiss chard, and over-wintered spinach with thick leaves and a recipe for roasting them in the oven–Should be at Bee Healthy by Tuesday!    Fresh food FOR HEALTH!    The Farmer’s Wife
