This is the main garden...
These are 'garden boxes' Allen put together. One has Strawberries, the other Soy Beans for Edamame.
And this is the Tomato/Basil/Onion garden with 4 squash plants in the corner ;)
This past week I harvested 'Onion Scapes'
And more Portabella's! 5.5 ounces in caps and 6 some ounces in stems.
I also harvested some lettuce and cilantro but forgot to weigh it! It is so nice to just run out the back door and grab what I need when I am cooking! I used the cilantro in a beef satay last night...oh my gosh, you HAVE to try this recipe. It was wonderful! It does have a kick though, so tone down the Sriracha if you can't handle the heat!
Here is a pic of our Pear Buds growing nicely :)
And since we were in the yard & gardens all weeekend, this was my helper!
Check out other Gardener's harvests from the past week over at Daphne's Dandelions.

Congratulations on getting the garden all in. Your scapes and portabello mushrooms look delicious!
Looks great! And so tidy.
Love your little helper -- I hope he didn't work too hard. :)
Nice shrooms! What a great feeling to get your garden in. I'm still trying to get my garden transitioned from spring to summer - lots of work left to do...
The gardens look great! I am impressed by all the green. I will try the recipe for cilantro in your last post - the flavors sounds delicious.
The gardens and boxes look great. COngrats on getting them in!
The gardens look great! And you've got a very cute helper!
I bet you feel like you've accomplished a marathon. It looks amazing and I'm so jealous. I say every year I'm going to do one. But I always chicken out. I'm envious of those that have the green thumb. I can't even keep a desk bamboo plant alive. :-(
Roadside Rustic -- It isn't me....it's hubby! I just go along with what he tells me to do (re: gardening!) and I pick the things to grow for the most part :) hehehehe
Nice big garden is in, congrats.
Wish I can grow mushroom, I tried to grow from a mushroom kit once, but failed!
pears....mmmm love pears. Keep posting the pictures!
You have given me garden envy :)
Ooo, nice looking mushrooms. You just reminded me that I should scout the fruit trees to see what's happening. I am tempted to do it now but I know the mosquitos would be only to thankful - it's dusk.
It must feel good to get the garden in. I know I felt better once all the plants were outside in the dirt.
It all looks wonderful! I know you must feel better having it done. You sure do have a handsome helper.
It looks like you have very beautiful plot of land.
I never thought about harvesting the onion scapes. I guess I should since we do have a few.
You have a beautiful garden! As I have a black thumb, I am extremely in awe of your gardening skills. :-)
Oh, I love little helpers! I got a few of my own! You have some very nice gardens! Looks great!
I've never seen anyone harvest onions scapes before, but I guess if garlic scapes are good, onion scapes ought to be too. And yay on getting it all in.
That is so wonderful you have such a large yard. Gardening is so relaxing, and food from the yard always tastes much better! The garden boxes look great, he did an awesome job. Maybe I should try to build some tiny ones to put on my patio...
Love all the pictures of the garden, I am jealous of all your space!
