Molly's harvest

Molly is definitely related to her dad. She loves to be out in the garden. Russ let her have a section of the garden to be her own this year, and she planted it all with mom and dad's help, and she was lucky enough to have some volunteer potatoes from last year. She had a small row of corn, which she thinned mostly by herself when it was time. (Thinning means that you plant lots of seeds for good coverage, and when they get about six inches tall, you pull some out so the plants that are left have room to grow. It has to be done on carrots, too.)

Here's Molly with her corn after it got taller than her.

Today for Sunday dinner, we had Molly's corn. She and her dad picked and prepared it. Here are some pictures of Molly's harvest.
