Organic garden update...

New gardens coming along nicely. We set up a pretty ingenious irrigation system in and around the three rows with a little sprinkler set from Target and a spider style sprinkler tied to a stack of Pepsi racks to water the potatoes (we have tons of these damn things stacked all over. Apparently the Pepsi guy's too lazy to take them with him.) I foresee them hitting the dumpster before too long, lol.

This week, the rest of our plants will be arriving. Tomatoes, peppers, more herbs, etc. are going in the ground very soon. As you can see by the picture, a few of our babies are coming up pretty well. The grounds keepers put in a nice fence for me to keep the deer and other hungry critters away from our upcoming bounty.

Today, we were able to take advantage of some amazing cilantro and parsley strait from the plants. I topped our Veal Osso Bucco with a fresh Gremolata and garnished a nice Asian chicken dish with green, fluffy cilantro leaves! Nice stuff.

My sous chef and I get great pleasure out of weeding the garden. Very Zen Like, lol.

Stay tuned for more updates later on this season.
