The fruits of our labor

We planted a small (12 X 6 foot) raised bed garden about a month ago or so. We figured we'd start small and see how we do LOL. The kids chose green beans, summer squash, carrots, cucumbers, and lettuce as the seeds. Today we picked the very first crop of organic baby lettuce leaves!! It was enough to fill a large Gladware container. The girls brought it in, washed it up, and promptly ate most of it...they are both like rabbits they eat so much salad LOL. Hopefully we will have much more veggies to pick very soon!
