We’re eating good these days right out of the garden. This broccoli is beautiful and full of vitamins!

It’s so much fun seeing different wildlife in the Alaskan wilds. Here are green-winged teals that showed up swimming around in the river near the cabin. I think these are female as the males have green and white on their heads which these don’t have. But all green winged teals have a bright patch of green under their wing which you can’t always see unless they are flying or they move a certain way.

Still harvesting the garden…got 2 different kinds of peas…sugar peas and Chinese pea pods. I shelled the sugar peas and eat them by the handfuls raw. They are so good. The Chinese pea pods will be good in stir fry.

I like some color in my veggies…purple cabbage and some rainbow colored swiss chard!

Jeff pulled green cabbage and turnips up today. They got big!

I picked some very ripe watermelon berries growing wild near the cabin.

The fireweed got tall this year! It’s over my head!

We’re starting to harvest the garden. Here’s the orange cauliflower we picked today. Wow! It’s a big one!

It’s bowhunting season for moose. The guys spent time warming up in preparation.

Have you ever had kohlrabi? It’s one of my favorite vegetables to grow. It grows really well in Alaska. It’s delicious too! It’s sweet and juicy and crunchy like an apple but tastes a bit like a radish. I just eat them raw.
