Also just harvested our first zucchini of the season!
Nice. Are you going to make jam?
This is the first year they have fruited, so there are not many. We have just been eating them whenever we go to the garden.
We thought that something was eating all of our berries and asparagus and my wife was getting really irritated until she saw my daughter go outside and go from patch to patch eating all the ripe berries and my son going out and starting at the tip and chomping to the bottom of the asparagus eating it right down to the dirt.
Our berry bushes have gotten so big that my daughter can't eat all of them anymore. Yours will come.

RULES:
All Lemmy.ca rules apply here.
Everyone (see rules 4 and 98) is welcome.
If you've seen a question 100 times answer it the 101st time or ignore it. Even better, write a complete, detailed answer and suggest that the mod(s) pin it to the community.
There will be ZERO tolerance for shaming, brigading, harassment, or other nonsense of those who keep, hunt, harvest, and process animals. [See rule 98.] You will be permanently banned the first time. You are NOT morally superior because you choose not to.
If you post a picture that includes blood, gore, or a dead animal mark it NSFW. We're not going to tolerate the militant anti-hunting and anti-farming bullshit here but we're also not going to tolerate people rubbing their hunting and harvesting in people's faces. [See rule 98.] If you post blood, gore, or dead animals and don't mark it NSFW it will be removed.
[Did you actually think there were 98 rules?]
If you present something as fact and are asked to provide proof or a source provide proof or a source. Proof must be from a reliable source. If you fail to provide proof or a source your post or comment may be removed.
Don't be a dick. Yes, this is a catch-all rule. Yes, you absolutely can be permanently banned for Rule 98 violations.
The mod(s) have the final say.
