From the good earth

Simple abundance ...

...sufficient for one. Actually, one-and-a-half because my Westie decided he likes roasted beetroot, too.

Selfish me, I'd rather not share.

Mystery peppers, 'Alma Paprika' according to the seed package, but an unexpected colour.

This past week's harvest

Perhaps not abundant in quantity but definitely rich in freshness, colour & flavour:

Beet greens (with a baby beet), kale, and shelling peas

The first 'Kootenai' tomato

(I'd planned to use the peas in a risotto but I ate half while shelling them and then nibbled on the rest throughout the rest of the day.)

Beets, freshly picked, ready to be roasted, and then used in a salad (thanks, @kathrynelliott, for the tasty suggestion)

First harvests

Baby beet with greens, chard & kale from the community garden

'Glacier' tomato from the balcony

A rainbow from the community garden
