Growing beets

Ive been delighted to have robust-looking beets growing in my raised beds in the mountains.  I definitely havent been successful growing beets before. 

They need neutral soil, a deep bed for the roots to develop, and plenty of moisture, not always easy to provide in the acidic soils of the Piedmont, where Ive been growing most of our vegetables.

So, Im happy to have harvested a few first beets, two regular and one golden.

They were delicious!
