It seems incongruous, perhaps, to think of harvesting during the first month of the year. I was ecstatic to find these beautiful turnips in my backyard last week— a whole crop of them. Some, like these three, seemed perfect in their shape, color, texture, and flavor (the greens were yummy too). Perhaps one day I’ll find out the variety! My husband is a masterful gardener, and he likes seeds. Lots of them, so sometimes the seeds either bought or harvested are a surprise. I like surprises in a garden.
Since January is often defined by reflection, regrouping, planning, setting intentions, and looking forward, I pose this question: What are you harvesting today?
