WHERE THE FARMHOUSE AND THE DOGHOUSE ARE ONE AND THE SAME

Feel My Pain

Crabgrass.  Need I say more?  The garden is in transition right now.  It's time to think about fall crops, but before we plant them we must rid the place of its summer weeds.  The crabgrass is out of control, and I have to tame it.  It's slow tedious work, but who else is gonna do it?


The rest of the day in the garden wasn't so bad.  Take a look around.

 The Black Plum Paste tomatoes are looking quite nice.

Although the flea beetles have reappeared, we're still getting a lot of eggplants.  See that crabgrass?

 My beloved Orange Bell peppers.

 I'll be planting these Wisconsin Lakes peppers again next year.  The yield has been great, and they are oh so sweet.

 We only got one artichoke this year, so I'm letting it just stick around.

Pepper forest. 

 The Dakota Black popcorn is standing tall.

 We're majorly in transition right now.

We had a happy harvest.
