Corn, Lettuce, and Swiss Chard ready to share!


Hi everyone,

The bigger portion of our community garden is ready to start harvesting.  The items on this side are for everyone to share so please help yourself (but be sure to leave some for others!).  The first round of sweet corn should be ready any day now as well as the popcorn so be sure to check for some next time you’re there.  The corn that is shorter is the regular sweet corn and the taller variety is popcorn.

There is also some green lettuce and swiss chard ready if anyone is interested in those.  The lettuce is near the Sparks’ plot and the swiss chard is hiding in between some of the younger corn and the sunflowers.

I made a diagram so you all know what’s what.  Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or aren’t sure about anything.

Hope you’re all enjoying your harvest!
