Strawberries!

Our first strawberries of the season were ready yesterday, so we went out to the strawberry patch and picked the ripe ones - 6 in all. I planted "Seascape" strawberries - they are everbearers, and should provide small amounts of fruit until September.

Here is the strawberry patch, but Liam is more interested in trying to grab a tall stalk of grass:


Adam trying to entice Liam to pick the first strawberry. Liam had no interest in the ripe berry, and was only interested in trying to rip the leaves off the plant:

Next, we'll be eating radishes from the garden... the first batch are almost ready!

Yay for you!!! You're own strawberries. I like mine with chocolate syrup on top, I know, defeats the purpose.
