Even More Produce

We have had a lot of fresh produce around our house this summer, thanks to our CSA membership at Bluebird Gardens! I have thoroughly enjoyed preparing and eating the items we receive each week.

A few weeks ago, we went to Bluebird for the fall harvest event. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon - it was the perfect day to bask in the sun.

We picked Yukon gold potatoes, kale, cantaloupe, and squash - and had a wonderful time doing it!


CJ had a great time digging the potatoes out of the field.




We picked a half share of potatoes - 50 pounds!



Just look at all of this delicious food!

Joel & I cut up and froze all of the cantaloupe - it will be delicious in smoothies. We had quite an assembly line process going (time for the big chef's knife)!



Our freezer is stocked with so many healthy foods to eat this winter - thank you Bluebird!

  1. Hi! I love the feeling of stocking up the freezer for winter!! I must be a bit of a pioneer! I would love to try a cantaloupe smoothie.... haven't had any kind of smoothie, I guess! Sounds healthy! It looks like Chris was a good helper!!:) Fun! Love to you all!
