September 2010 - peas

The shelling peas growing up the trellis looked healthy - just not a lot of them this year. These delightful specimens were set aside for my granddaughters to eat when they visited. Eating peas straight from the shell - delicious. So fabulous to share gardening with Marley and Lila - so many kids don't know where the food they eat comes from, or how it grows. Time to uproot the peas and get ready for a fabulous new climbing zucchini I've found on the Diggers website. Perfect for training up the trellis and quite space effective.
