Garden Update – What’s Growing, What’s Harvesting

April 11, 2018

Garden Update

The garden is growing! Every day is an exciting new day in the garden right now. New sprouts, bigger leaves, flowers, and produce! I’ve already harvested the first plot of radishes, and a few of the sugar snap peas. I wanted to share a garden update with you, mostly in photos.

The Enclosure

The other garden update is that we finally finished the enclosure around the garden boxes, to keep out birds and other pests. Hubby had this awesome idea to build PVC frames, strap netting to them, and then hang them on hooks to the main 4×4 frame we have around the boxes. Each of the “walls” comes off easily so you can still access any side of the garden to work inside. It’s working out really well so far, check it out!

Dinner on one pan! Roasted acorn squash, asparagus Dinner on one pan! Roasted acorn squash, asparagus, and tilapia with lemon slices fresh from our tree 😃 A favorite weeknight dinner around here (some version or other of this)!
.
To get the timing right, start the squash (or you could sub potatoes) ahead, roast at 425F for about 20 minutes, then add the asparagus and tilapia for another 10ish. With lemons on top the tilapia may need closer to 15 🙃.
.
Season as desired! I used rosemary and smoked paprika on the squash, a dash of chipotle on the asparagus to tie in the smoky paprika and add a touch of heat, and then lemon pepper on the fish to boost that lemony flavor. 😋
