Eating right out of the garden

Today we had Addy & Aidan over for play dates and after running through the sprinklers all the kids started poking around the garden and eating things. They didn't even bother to run the food into the house to wash. They just started popping food into their mouths! (its a good thing that i have an organic garden and don't use pesticides!)


Ash & Addy finding ripe strawberries to eat.





Grabbing sweet peas off the vine was definitely a hit! They stood there forever snapping off a pod, eating the peas inside then dropping the pod back into the planter. They stripped both plants of all their ripe pods!


Aidan loved to pop open the pods and count the individual peas as he ate them. He always commented when there were more/less in this one or how that one had bigger peas.


Today made all the time/work/sweat i have put into the garden worth it! It gave me much joy watching the kids eat things that i grew and love every bite!
