I needed a new lawn mower this year and ended up with a cordless electric self-propelled mower. I decided buy an electric mower after hearing Master Gardener Laurie Proctor talk about how much pollution one mower produces.This is a photo of my 8-year-old son, Ed, holding the “weirdest” carrot from our garden. He liked it because it had so many shoots coming off of it. I think we either left it grow too long or didn’t thin the carrots enough. We didn’t eat this one, just took the photo.
