Getting to The Roots

The benefits of growing root vegetables.

I'm a practical gardener. Meaning I am realistic about space and garden costs.

Radishes, beets and turnips are a great way to get the most out of the cool crop season.

Beets and turnips are edible from root to leaves. Making a great addition to salads.

Like my lettuce and spinach. I pick turnip and beet leaves. By selecting leaves. The lettuce or root crop regrows new leaves, without hindering the plants.

Until Tomorrow! Smile On!
