What's growing on, Beehaw? (self.greenspace)

After many weeks of low key worry, the state finally got back to us and confirmed that we're licensed to sell plants for another year! This time around there are additional compliance agreements (and fees) that are required but I'm very hopeful about this season. Next step is getting accepted to some new markets we're looking to attend, maybe a festival or two. Now I just need to have the weather play nice so I can be on time for spring shipping and inspections.

Someone gave us a setup for doing puree storage for our almost six month old, so we're looking to add more veggies to the plots for making our own baby food - I would love some suggestions for some veg with interesting colors for her to experience. I've got a carrot medley waiting for the snow to melt, and some awesome purple potatoes, but would love some more ideas!

What's growing on with you all?

Just potted my new set of chiliplants. Yellow, red, purple and black fruits if all goes according to plan. (It never does. Chilies always get infested with something.)

Hopefully I can save enough fruits to make a few batches of hotsauce to carry me through next winter. ;)
