It's Harvest Time!

Think there isn’t a lot to do in the garden in the fall? Think again! We’ve been gardening at 5th Street Farm every week, planting cover crops to protect the soil, weeding, transplanting, and harvesting eggplants, tomatoes, black eyed peas, collard greens, rainbow chard, kale, sweet potatoes, and lots of herbs! 

We were able to use the sweet potatoes for not one but two cooking workshops! First, we made a delicious stir fry, using sweet potato leaves from the garden and vegetables from Sixth Street's CSA. Then, we made some tasty sweet potato fries!
