This will be my first harvesting of rhubarb
So how do I tell if it's ready?

As soon as the stalks are long and thick, it's ready. Don't leave it
too late in the season to pick or it will get fibrous.

Also I read that you should always cook it- it's too tart to be eaten raw??

Myself, I don't eat it raw, but I do know someone who loves to eat it
raw. It's a matter of taste, I guess.
