It has been fun being able to start picking veggies. It's a great feeling to know that a seed that was started way back when it was still cold out has grown and made something yummy. Today, there are all sorts of things that are ready or near ready.
I picked a few of these yellow cherry tomatoes. They are the first ripened tomatoes of my season!

These are little pickling cucumbers. They are only about 4-5 inches long. I read that the more you pick the more it encourages the plant to keep producing. I also just picked so much dill so I'm thinking pickles are in order.
Fresh Herbs: (from left to right) Mint, Curly Parsley, Basil, German Thyme, Cilantro, Marjoram and Dill
I just picked all of this lettuce. I had several varieties because I wanted to try them and see what I liked the best. I have Salad Bowl lettuce, Black Seeded Simpson lettuce, Mesclun Mix, and some Spinach. I also had two 8 ball zucchini's that picked.
This is the first yellow squash of the season. I will probably pick it tomorrow!
These are scalloped yellow squashes. As you can see from all of the yellow, we are going to have quite a few of these.
Can you see all of the little straight neck yellow squashes? These grow surprisingly fast.
And last but certainly not least are the sugar snap peas that will be ready next week!
