Bringing in the Harvest
Yesterday, we harvested the last of the garden. Actually not quite, just remember that tomorrow we need to bring in the squash. We first went out to pull up the carrots, but the children were getting along nicely with that, so I decided to go and dug up the remaining potato rows. I called N. over to help me with that. It was ok to dig, but bending down (remember I'm 38 + weeks pregnant) to pick the potatoes was not so easy.  We didn't have a bumper crop, but we are happy with what we did find. They were a decent size, considering how wet the garden was.
Here I am with N. helping me.
R. was taking the tops off the carrots. We have a hamper full, but I still need to sort them. The really small ones we will keep for our horse. The others I hope to freeze.
Part of our onion crop. They did well and some are quite big!
I took this picture just this evening. It was rainy and overcast here all day, but then the sun shone through and it look so neat outside.
It almost seems hard to believe that another summer has come and gone and we are now into the fall already. |
