Official harvest alert: I have harvested four green beans from the bush bean plant!!!
This might not seem very newsworthy, but for the clueless gardener, it's an incredible feat. Even though I've been engaged in the pursuit of growing organic vegetables for about four years now, I'm still stunned and thrilled when anything edible emerges from the dirt.
Organically speaking, I can certify that all the ingredients used to produce the plant are totally organic and workout additives, pesticides or any chemicals of any kind. They contain nothing but organic soil, homemade compost, organic seeds and purified, filtered water.
Oh, and sunshine!
Now. What the hell do I do with FOUR beans?
Perhaps I should have planted a few more plants. Live and learn.
