How to Harvest Leaf Lettuce

Today was the day for our first real "harvest." Other than picking some snow peas and strawberries only to eat right away:). We planted an organic "Lettuce Leaf Salad Bowl Blend", and I have to say it has been one of the best things we've had growing in the garden and it was finally ready for harvest:)!  Leaf Lettuce is probably one of the easier plants to harvest, but here's a quick video explaining how we did it:)

The progress thus far...

I am waaay behind on blogging, but I just made some videos of what's going on here at the New Beginnings Organic Garden and I thought I would share:). I feel like I may say this every time I make a new post but eventually I hope to keep it more up to date:). I will also one day blog about the previous work it took even to get to this point! :) So, without further ado, here is a simple video of where things are at. Enjoy! :)


A few things I forgot to mention in the video are that the large plants next to the carrots are broccoli, we also have peppers, spinach, oregano and some marigolds and zinnias growing in the garden:).
