Last updated September 7, 2023

There’s an exciting moment in spring when the early vegetables appear in the garden, and you forget all of the digging and planting and watering, and just bask in the gift of sun-ripened, homegrown produce.

Even at the beginning of the gardening season, there’s still work to do, but it’s the most enjoyable kind of work when you know that every item crossed off your honeydew list provides healthy fresh food for you, your family and friends. You’ve prepped the soil, started seeds, planted seedlings and now you’re ready for the harvest.
