Surprise! Spinach!

It amuses me how you can put so much effort into getting one plant to grow. And failing while doing so.

And yet…

You can do absolutely nothing at all and get quite happy volunteers growing all over the place. This is how we ended up with a whole section of perpetual spinach.

Weeds love the rain and smothered under them was this large leafy plant.
There was a hearty crop growing and after consulting with a couple people they agreed it was perpetual spinach. Which is exciting because hey – free food!
We harvested some and already used it in a stir fry 😋

One of the better surprises the plot has given us! 😄

One response to “Surprise! Spinach!”

  1. That’s really cool! My plot has a lot of free blackberries on it (or will have soon), but really I would rather not have the brambles!
