chard and lettuces

Lettuce is pretty much done. The only one I can still eat a bit of it is arugula. Have cut down all but three of the simpson and most of the little ceasar, saving just a few plants of each to set seed for next year.

The day I cut all the lettuces back, I was planning on just making salad, but found that the chard was starting to bolt as well, so I cut some of that to make a quiche before it got too far.

This chard plant is making seed for me.

The younger ones I started in spring are still very small- but if they make it through summer heat should give us some good eating in fall when it cools off again.

My beets are big enough to notice!
