Radish Farmer

When Tresa plants her vegetable garden.  Kieran always gets something to plant as well.  One year it was a colourful plant that we put in the front.  It was orange and needed a shady spot.

I forget what it was.  But it was pretty.
Video: What I planted!
This year he planted seeds.  3 types of vegetables.  All in the same spot.  Which is why it is in a tight cluster like a shrub.
There were radishes, beans and I think asparagus.
They are well over 30 days old now.   And you can now see the radishes popping up out of the ground.
So he picked one.

Video: Radish farmer.  Will he eat it?  No.  He's never eaten a radish. I don't think he's ever eaten asparagus.  Beans maybe.

But this was a project for him.  At school they planted seeds and took care of them and sold them at bake sales when they flowered.  Someone bought his.  But I think he wanted to buy it, but he had no money.  But we managed to get the straw back that he used to keep the plant straight.
