We harvested two plants for a potato salad. It may have been a little early. We will check back in a week. These will be used in a potato salad. We are having a sort of harvest supper cook out tomorrow, from our lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and potatoes. The corn is still a couple of weeks away.

Beans! and Peas
Yesterday, we picked 7 lbs, and today another 2.8 lbs. That is a lot of beans. Next year I will stagger the plantings.
And we had a few peas that survived (most did not come up due to the cold wet spring. They were very juicy and tasty.

Raised bed greens
About 4 weeks ago I planted this raised bed. We have enjoyed eating the red and green oak leaf over the past few days.

Corn - Knee high by 4th of July
I don't know where the saying came from, but knee-high by the fourth of July is where you want your corn to be at least in Vermont. This the best our corn crop has ever been. I should also mention this is also the first time we have planted corn :-)
