We’ve Got the Beet!

Our edible wall has created quite a stir here at the office, and some good eating habits!

Don’t they say that carrots are a negative calorie food? Great! Then we all lost some calories munching on the numerous baby carrots that we harvested an hour ago from our edible wall. And, although we haven’t eaten it (yet!) we also found a nice-sized beet, along with its little beet sidekick, as well as some delicious white strawberries. And on another product that we’re trialing, (part edible wall module, part screen), we harvested a few little baby green beans and squash. Yum!

Check them out….

Our intern from High Tech High Chula Vista, Andres, and edibles specialist (and Vegetable Gardening Instructor at Foothills Adult School) Abby Moldenhauer, digging up the herbs and vegetables and replanting the next round!

Abby holding up two carrots curled together in the shape of a heart….awwwww, how sweet!

Cleaned up and ready to be eaten!

Although they don’t look ripe, this particular variety of strawberry (White Alpine to be exact) is sweet and delicious!

Told you “we’ve got the BEET” (thanks for coming up with that title Abby!) and beans and squash!
