Fall Lettuce

We're starting to harvest our fall crop of lettuce. We've got 3 rows of lettuce planted at the Epworth Veggie Garden including the rows that we planted beans and lettuce accidentally. We transplanted some of the lettuce that grew with the beans into the "green" box.


I'm hoping the cooler temperatures will keep the flavor of the lettuce mild and not bitter like we some times see in the hot summer. Another goal has been to continue harvest the leaves of the lettuce when they are younger. Tonight we harvested 9 more 1 gallon bags of mixed lettuce. This puts our total harvest for this year at 109 - 1 gallon bags and we hope to harvest alot more lettuce in the coming weeks.
