Swiss chard from the raised beds

I must have been especially generous with the Espoma organic fertilizer in March, when I planted this chard.  The leaves are huge!  And they have been wilting in full sun in exceptional heat. So I harvested the outer leaves -- a substantial harvest.  Part of tonight's dinner.
