Timing is everything

The biggest salad you've ever seen

We had rows of beautiful lettuce this spring, but as soon as the heat came, it bolted and went to seed. We would have been able to sell it at the market if we'd had enough other produce held over from the fall and winter to make it worth it. Now we know we planted it too early to be ready with the other spring crops. It won't go to waste; the chickens love it and we ate plenty of salad ourselves this spring.
