Harvest Monday................10/01/2012

The harvests are really dwindling down. I only have peppers and eggplants left in the garden. I'm sue there will be several weeks of no harvests since there is no fall broccoli and cauliflower and I was way way behind sewing any fall/winter greens.

Sweet Peppers & a few Tomatoes

The last of the tomatoes :(
I pulled all the plants this past weekend. 

Hot & Spice Pepper and a small Eggplant

I managed to get a few raspberries.

Total weighed Harvest: 15.2 lbs

Hop on over to Daphne's Dandelions, our host of Harvest Monday to see what's going on in  veggie gardens around the globe!!!

  2. Oh they all look so good. I'm getting very excited about summer produce - I planted out my tomatoes today and the eggplants and peppers are hardening off before planting. Hope I get some as good as yours.

  4. Those raspberries look luscious. I really wish I'd watered my raspberries this year. They did absolutely nothing since they were too dry.

  12. Another great harvest of tomatoes and peppers, and those raspberries look like candy. You really had an excellent run on the tomatoes this year. You must be happy with how well they performed for you.

    1. Thanks Laura, The tomatoes did well considering the weather and disease. I think we got enough put away....not sure though!

  13. Your harvests are always beautiful, with such color! I just finished prepping the chow chow (aka "piccalilli" in some places) and got going on a batch of sauerkraut, although I used bought cabbage for that. Still have TONS of sweet/hot peppers and lots of green tomatoes. I'm going to make more marinara out of them. I'm planting an eggplant or two next year because of your lovely ones, and trying the eggplant caponata recipe!

    1. Thanks Jody, my raspberries hardly did a thing this year because of moving them. I planted the garlic on Saturday!
