First of the next lettuce

We gleaned our first harvest from the lettuce frame that was planted in June. DeAnne made some great pesto with arugula from that frame along with some basil that Aunt Mary gave us.

Last night I soaked some chard and green bean seeds and placed kale and lettuce in a wet paper towel. I was planning to do mini-soil blocks for the lettuce, but haven't found the time to make the soil block mix. This morning, I pulled most of the peas and planted the beans in their place.

I left the cover off of the new strawberry bed for a couple of nights and found most of the leaves gone, most likely from the woodchucks.
