One Humongous Radish

This fellow in Ethiopia attended one of our Gardening for Life sessions.

And look what happen when he improved his soil?  If you want a great garden, you need great soils.  Growing in homemade compost.

We did some background checking and found out that people should be eating the leaves of a radish plant, as the leaves have 3 times the nutrients as the roots do.


My wife does not like radishes.  So I grew some big ones and this time made a whole salad out of one radish, leaves and all.  Put some good dressing on it and she love this salad.  NICE!
