A few months back Hailey asked if she could plant a vegetable garden so that she could bring healthy food to the local homeless population. I reluctantly agreed and we set off to the store to buy seeds and soil. She has been the one to plant the seeds, water them and transplant them outside when they are ready. Today she was delighted to see that not only her spinach was ready to be harvested, but also her peas are starting to flower.

Hailey is most excited about the peas.

We harvested the spinach less than an hour ago and already I have been asked if we can deliver salads to the homeless. I think I know what we will be doing this weekend.
