Red and Ready Radishes!

Today on New Farm, we pulled up the first bunch of the radishes.  They are of the Sparkler White Tip variety, Latin Name:  Raphanus Sativus.  Their seeds went into the ground early spring planted in a raised bed in the backyard garden.  With lots of rain this spring, we got by without watering them too much.  Another bunch we pulled up were cracked and split down the middle, perhaps from too much water all at once? 

Nevertheless, these organic radishes will find their way into our salads for dinner tonight!
