ready for harvest, Home Farm, June

When people ask about what fruits we have available in June we most often say June is a slow month. And for our big crops it is, but walking around Home Farm this morning (Home Farm being the acre or so around the house), I realized that for us, June is a pretty tasty month. Permaculturalists appreciate snacking, and instant gratification, so oftentimes we forget to count the fruits we've munched on as we pass from one place to another. Here are some photos of the fruits and leaves and herbs from this morning's walk.
