The girls helped me pick the last bit of salad greens before preparing the beds for this season. I like to let them help me with the fun stuff - harvesting and eating!
Lettuce tastes best when it's harvested early in the morning before the sun has fully risen: that's why the kids have on their night clothes.
Worm Bin Update: The worms are still alive and I found my first cocoon this morning! Yay! I tried photographing the cocoon, but I couldn't get it to focus properly. The worm cocoon looked like a tiny little pearl onion. The worms have already finished their first meal from a few weeks back. Their diet consists mostly of egg shells and coffee grinds. Sometimes I give them fruit peels, but usually all of my veggie scraps go to the chickens.
