Late August

This morning, I spent an hour in the garden weeding and harvesting. My plan was to harvest the potatoes but alas, I got only a handful of small fingerlings. Most of the potatoes I had planted never became a plant and I suspect those pill bugs that are so abundant in my soil are responsible :(. This is the second year of no potatoes and I think I will not plant any next year. Very sad as I was looking forward to some roasted fingerlings.

I did however harvest some huge cucumbers, a bunch of tomatoes and my golden beets.

Some things to look forward to:

My huge butternut squash patch …
… a lot of green beans, both bush and pole, and …
… purple cauliflower.
