Sniff...

Well, this one, for the most part, is in the books (and jars and the freezer)...

Today was put-the-garden-away-for-the-season day... Yep, we harvested evrything left (10 pounds ripe tomatoes, 30 pounds green tomatoes, 20 some large eggpant, 10 pounds banana peppers, 10 pounds assorted other peppers, a couple stray pumpkins, 15 pounds of lima beans in their shells), removed all the cages, pulled up the plants for drying and burning and plowed evrything else in...

We still have fall crops at the top end of the garden (kale, spinich, arugala, lettuce and brocolli)...

Gonna shell the limas tonight and we'll freeze them... The eggplant does not freeze well so the P-Vine will take most of it to the garden club tomorrow along with alot of the peppers...

But, sniff...

...this one is done!!!

On the other front, however, this is a great time to transplant everygreens and move other plants so that is exactly what the P-Vine is doing this afternoon...

Been fun... Got loads of food for winter but...

...sniff, none the less...
