Today I planted 12 beet plants. It's almost like Schrute Farms, minus Dwight and his looney brother. It would be more interesting if they were around, but a rapidly blinding dog, a one eyed cat and a variety of other odd animals is about all I can take.
The beet plants were free. Along with 2 6 packs of iceburg lettuce the nursery was giving away were the beets. I've never grown them. We shall see how they turn out. It was cool because even the roots are a red color, with some pink.
A second planting of potatoes went in as well. I tried to harvest some "new" potatoes but they were too new, so on they will grow.
The other news is the fireflies are here! I love them. I think they've been here about a week. Now that I know that not every part of the country has fireflies, I think they are even better.
