It will drop into the teens here tonight. Figured I had better harvest some veggies. I love harvesting veggies in late January. It feels like some sort of accomplishment at a time when nothing else is happening.
Today's harvest includes brussels spouts, 3 colors of carrots, a few fennel bulbs, scarlet turnips (my favorites) and some heads of romanesco cauliflower. I have lots of greens as well, but I am taking a break from those for a few days. Looks like I will have an Italian feast tonight. Bill |

Thanks everyone!
Charline, the purple carrots are Purple 68 from Johnny's. They are easily the best tasting purple carrot that I have tried. They are sweet and tender even when raw. This is my first attempt at growing romanesco cauliflower. It is definitely later maturing. My kids love it and they do not like white cauliflower. |

I forgot to include the italian escarole. They get HUGE. The plate in the photo is a full size dinner plate. One head of escarole dwarfs the plate.

Impressing looking mid-winter haul! What is the coldest you've been this winter and have you given any of these protection?

I expect to lose the turnips, cauliflower, broccoli tonight. I harvested most of those today. I am growing 6 varieties of kale. Each one has a 25 ft long bed. I am specifically checking the cold tolerance of the kales. Most of the kales take a pretty severe hit when we drop below 20. |

Bill,
I ordered some "Scarlet Ohno" Turnips from Pinetree. Is that what you're growing? Funny thing about cauliflower and kids. Mine doesn't like the romansco, but likes the white. He picked out some purple (graffitti) to grow out this spring (just to try) and for next fall definitely. |
