Homegrown zucchini paired with homegrown cilantro for yummy salad!👌
Life is good! 👏
Wondering what noise you are hearing in the background?🤔
Even meat lovers are licking their chops looking at the salad beauty!😉
Hey, what can I say? That’s Raj Farm magic for you!😊🙏
At Raj Farm lot of flowers in zucchini plant, no zucchinis yet. ☹️ It’s been a rather hot summer with not much rain. Looks like the pollinators have been chilling as the temps have been soaring! Cut some of the big leaves to expose the flowers to the pollinators hoping their bright yellow color would act as a gentle reminder about tasks in their to-do list 😄 No luck yet, but hopes still abound for a bountiful zucchini harvest this summer 👍
Zucchini pollinators, where art thou? 🤔
I have heard from a friend that fried zucchini flowers are good, looks like zucchini fritters may not be a bad alternative! 😉😂
Wife will not be happy to hear me go from salad to fried stuff though 🤣 I will work on convincing wife it comes to that 😊🙏
Cherry tomatoes, Jalapeño pepper, Zucchini, Cucumber! 🥰
Zucchini! First time for zucchini in Raj Farm. Planted seeds and growth has been spectacular. Lot of nice, large yellow flowers in the plant. Leaves appear similar to cucumber plant leaves. Thought zucchini and cucumber were from the same family, zucchini being the flamboyant sister (big hair, big earrings, high heels etc) and cucumber being the shy sister (dressed more conservatively to not attract attention). Turns out they are related but not from the same family. Both are categorized as cucurbits and under that zucchini is in Cucurbita sub-category, cucumber is in Cucumis sub-category. Cousins for sure, at least one more degree of separation than I originally thought. My newfound wisdom comes from Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cucurbitaceae ). Early signs look promising, we will be tracking and reporting progress this year. 👍 One bonus I already see. The flowers have been attracting butterflies. Some white and even some monarchs. Enough of my talk, let’s talk business! Knowledge gained from this post will cost $5 and payments can be made to TheRajFarm 😉 100% of the proceeds from your payments will go to my favorite charity, myself 😂🙏
