Current Harvest
Monday, August 23, 2010
On a recent trip to my community garden plots (one at the St. Bernard Community Garden and one at the Woodlands Community Garden) I brought home the following haul:
A huge bouquet of zinnias, over a pound of potatoes (‘Yukon Gold’ and a mystery blue), and several ‘Cherokee Purple’ heirloom tomatoes. I also picked a bag of swiss chard, and a half pound of ‘Sungold’ cherry tomatoes.
My butternut squash is starting to really take over my Woodlands plot, and my cayenne and habanero peppers are all starting to ripen now. My cucumbers have been a disappointment, along with my tomatoes overall. But the swiss chard is going gangbusters and I will have potatoes to harvest well into September. So I can’t complain, not really.
Happy harvesting!
