The last of our Fall lettuce has been consumed by us and our neighbors and our raised beds are now bare except for the garlic which we will harvest next year. The harvest season this year was acceptable even as I lament over our tomatoes that never fully recovered from the hail in the spring and the rains of the summer.
We had successes with our eggplants, butternut squash, onions, garlic, cucumbers, lettuce, and mixed peppers. The herbs, especially our basil, were exceptional this year. We even enjoyed blueberries and raspberries which was a pleasant surprise considering we just planted them. We could not survive on the output of @carondeletgarden, but it was lovely to pick fresh produce from the garden to enhance my meals in the kitchen. As the season turns to a time of rest, I know Big Guy and I will start dreaming of our garden next year. Until then, rest well @carondeletgarden.
