Gardening is about the journey as much as it is the destination, but who can deny how satisfying it is to enjoy the fruits of one’s labor! By mid to late summer, the vegetable garden you started in spring will begin rewarding you with a plentiful bounty. You’ll want to harvest vegetables, herbs, and fruits when at peak maturity in order to enjoy the highest quality. Make it a routine to check your plants daily and harvest continually.
Continual harvesting promotes fresh, healthy, tasty growth through the entire growing season, so your plants don’t harden up, go to seed, and shut down early. Watch our videos below for expert advice on how to harvest your best bounty.
