A Little Bit About Radishes

From Mother Earth News:

Esteemed by the Greek god Apollo, cultivated by Egyptian pyramid builders and eaten for breakfast by American settlers, the radish has been around forever. It was prescribed by physicians to prevent scurvy, used by herbalists to ward off women's chatter, and salted or pickled to accompany food and drink throughout recorded time.

farmer-bill.jpgFall now seems to be here - our eggplants and peppers are done for the year. Sweet potatoes and winter squash are still in storage and many types of root crops all will be brought in for the next several weeks. Look for cabbages, oriental and other greens and some herbs as we finish out the year.
