Rhubarb



I was told that the previous owner of my property had planted this rhubarb and had never gotten enough to make a pie. Just a little sauce. I did not harvest any stalks that first year but I've had endless amounts in the 40 years since. Eugenia is my wife and pie maker for the last 42 years.

  1. Eugenia makes a good looking pie .. I'm sure it's good tasting as well.

  2. Mmmmm. Pie! I've been wanting to talk to you about rhubarb lately. How long is the harvest season for rhubarb?

  3. The short answer is a couple of months.

  4. Eugenia makes my kind of rhubarb pie.

    I have to admit I cannot raise rhubarb and I consider myself to be a pretty decent gardener.

    My sis brings me bags frozen of hers.

    I have spent a lot of money on starts and don't know what I am doing wrong!

    Crazy, I know.
