Tomatoes

The tomatoes survived the frost last week so I should have them for a couple more weeks.   Nice quality.

I roast some nearly every day to get me through the winter and for the tomato bread.    I'll fill a small chest freezer,  then start roasting squash and fill another 

    

 

Squash

 Saturday;  we'll be there; mill city farmers market 

It's fall; it's time

The days get shorter and busier 

Extracting Honey

We're extracting honey this week;  it's going well;  pretty fair crop.

  Should have some bottled for sale starting September 25th 

    Last of the sweet corn for the season this weekend.   

Tomatoes for 4 more weeks

   Next week we'll start harvesting pumpkins, gourds and maybe some squash too. 

 Baked goods soon 

 

Sweet Corn

We're into the last planting of sweet corn.  Pretty fair germination considering the season 

 Two varieties.  A bicolor and a white 

 Will have it for sale this weekend at the mill city market and maybe maybe the following too 

 Then it'll be over and I'll be back to baking 

Tomatoes a few more weeks 

 Just a few melons this weekend 

 

Melons and Tomatoes

Unfortunately, no sweet corn this weekend.    

  It was so dry that some of the plantings never germinated properly.   It'll be a couple weeks before we have meaningful amounts of corn.   The late plantings look good and we're getting some helpful rains. 

  Plenty of nice tomatoes and the melons are very good.   The red one in particular,  Petra Negra 

 

Sweet corn, melon, tomatoes
