Edible Schoolyard is a fantastic program at First Line charter schools in New Orleans.  The kids are involved in every level of planning and maintaining the gardens, and the food is prepared at their cafeterias, where young folks interested in the culinary arts can work with local chefs to prepare the foods they have grown and harvested.  Their online auction is open for bidding, and there are some fantastic hand painted watering cans for bid, including one by yours truly.  Check it out:

Tomatoes Part II

So, I forgot to take pictures of our summer feast last night. I guess I was having too much fun! Here’s a picture of the big heirloom tomatoes we picked yesterday. We have another big colander, a small colander, a stock pot and a couple of other containers full of all the various kinds of tomatoes we’ve been picking the last few days. They love the heat. Me? Not as much.
