"Hello, Radishes!"

Today, Brandon and Mekenna stopped in with their grandparents to see the baby ducks and pick some produce. The kids were totally "into" picking vegetables and agreed to help me photograph a new tutorial.

HOW TO PICK RADISHES

I usually only plant "long" radishes here at the U-Pick garden. I find they provide more volumne per square inch than round ones. I have both red and white varieties.

1. Select a radish that looks large enough to suit you. Most of the time they are poking up out of the ground a bit, so it is easy to tell how large they are. 

2. Be sure it's the one you want....radishes are 20 cents a piece regardless of size.

3. Grasp the plant at the base of the stem and give it a little pull.

4. Radishes pull up easy!

Watch again carefully.....

It's so easy, a child can do it!

This year's radishes are so juicy and delicious! It must be all of that rain and sun we've been having!
Thanks, guys....you did a great job!
