March in the Garden: Abundance, Unexpected Visitors, and Fresh Salads 
The month of March arrived full of harvests—and a few setbacks that are all part of the natural cycle of working the land. Despite the small issues, the garden rewarded us with fresh, tasty, and much-anticipated produce.
Radish Abundance and a Few Surprises
This was a big month for radishes. The harvest was very generous, and many plants grew strong and healthy. However, part of the crop was affected by snails and pill bugs—something quite common when the soil is damp and full of organic matter.
(As seen in the images, some of the radishes were partially eaten, leaving visible marks on both roots and leaves.)
Despite everything, the harvest was fruitful, and a large portion of the radishes made it into the kitchens of our gardeners.
Snow Peas and Garden Peas: A Harvest to Remember
It was also an excellent month for snow peas and garden peas, especially in garden bed no. 1. The plants grew well and produced plenty of pods—tender and sweet—that were harvested throughout the month.
It’s truly a pleasure to enjoy these delicacies straight from the garden!
Lettuces Finally Ready: Salad Time Has Arrived
After weeks of slow growth, the lettuces in bed no. 3 finally grew strong, thanks to several consecutive days of sunshine. Now we were able to harvest large, fresh, and healthy heads—perfect for preparing homemade salads, which have started to appear on the tables of the families participating in the garden project.
This month taught us two important lessons:
That March weather can greatly affect the pace of plant growth.
That we must stay alert to the small creatures living in the soil—some arrive hungrier than expected!
We continue our steady work with enthusiasm, watching how the garden gradually transforms into a space of abundance and collective learning.
