Last spring, the gophers feasted on our parsnips and left only a few for us.

So this year I decided to grow them in containers. This is what they look like right now, after all the greens froze.

Parsnips in containers - January

They don’t look like much right now, but there is treasure under the soil!

And this year, George discovered that cooking them in a Dutch Oven makes for a very delicious dish!

All they need is virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
