Garden Update for September 12, 2019

We're in full-on harvest season now. The cover photo is all the stuff I picked in one day, not counting a pound of radishes I pulled and cleaned earlier that morning. Some of the tomatoes have gone to make ketchup. Thirteen pounds of tomatoes cooks down to three quarts, so that uses them up fast. Several quarts of green beans are put away in dry salt or brine, some traditional preservation methods I'm trying out. Some of the late green beans that I said in this video would be ready soon...well, they're ready. I looked under the leaves the next day and there were loads of them to pick. I think it's time to make up a sign and find a way to sell some.
