Goodbye for now, parsnips

Pulled up, and ate, the last of the parsnips today. I think the red potato plants will be happy; they will get a little more afternoon sun.
Last of the parsnips
I will definitely be growing parsnips again. I found them easy to get a good harvest from. Most of the seeds came up, the roots were sweet and tender. Very happy with them especially considering what bad luck I've had with carrots. Only thing I need to do is do more thinning so the roots are able to get bigger. I had a tendency to overseed then not thin aggressively enough my first go-round.
