Strawberries!

Strawberries in Bloom
I can't wait! The strawberry plants have been full of blossoms and we are finally starting to see the fruit appear.  Today we found one ripe strawberry.  A bird took a bite of it.  That did not deter Dale; he ate the part that the bird did not.  I am going to have to find some netting.


Strawberries
There isn't anything better than garden fresh fruits and vegetables.  Just as a reminder. When a plant flowers and the flowers and creates an edible bite after germination, that edible bite is called fruit.  Vegetables are from roots or stalks.

Rhubarb is a vegetable.
Tomato is a fruit.

Here are some others...
Fruit = strawberries, blueberries, cherries, zucchini, pumpkin, squash, beans, and peas just to name a few.

Vegetables = carrots, beets, kohlrabi, radishes, potatoes and asparagus just to name a few.
I like most fruits. I don't like many vegetables. Hmmmm.
