.We drove over to Tait Farm
this afternoon. It's a great place to
pick up gifts that really represent Happy Valley. They do a great job of featuring products from by local artists. Every visit is a real treat.
This time of year one can find some of the best heirloom seedlings around. Their greenhouse is overflowing with so many unique varieties of greens ready for the garden. We picked up some beets, 2 kinds of kale, choi, rapini, and lots of herbs. I've never planted beets, but I'm going to give it a go and see what happens.
They didn't have any peppers or tomatoes. The weather has been so beautiful that I forget that it is still only April and we still have a chance of frost. We will have to visit again in May to pick up our tomato and pepper seedlings.
I can hardly wait to plant our little gems. I love growing our own food. It is one of the best feelings when you go to the store and your bill is that much smaller because you have a great garden full of homegrown nourishing veggies.
