Winter Vegetable Harvest


Carrots and Turnips in Gary's Winter Garden

Via MG Gary Ankney's Facebook Page, comes this picture of carrots and turnips dug from his garden on Wednesday, January 30, 2013.
Picked these today - who says gardening stops in the fall? And if you've never tasted winter-sweetened carrots and turnips, you don't know what you're missing.
The MG's at the Universtiy of Maryland's Grow it! Eat it! Blog are celebrating 2013 as the Year of Root Vegetables.

All year we'll be celebrating the crops that grow edible parts below the ground. Some of them, in fact many of them, grow edible parts above the ground too. But think roots, tubers, rhizomes, corms, bulbs, etc. - we will try to talk about them all!
I plan to follow along.  Their blog address is on the list to the right, as well as in the link above.
