I got a bale of field hay from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aghall.com\/home.html\">Agricultural Hall<\/a> and cleared out the plot: I dug up the dahlia tubers, harvested a nice amount of vegetables (fall greens, arugula, Swiss chard, leeks and some tiny golden beets), weeded and spread the hay.\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1133\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=695%2C592&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"695\" height=\"592\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=1024%2C872&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=300%2C256&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=768%2C654&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=1100%2C937&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?w=1688&amp;ssl=1 1688w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/harvest-11_11_2018.jpg?w=1390&amp;ssl=1 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/>Still growing are two stalks of Brussels sprouts \u2026<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1131\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Brussels-sprouts-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=695%2C927&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"695\" height=\"927\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Brussels-sprouts-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Brussels-sprouts-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Brussels-sprouts-11_11_2018.jpg?resize=1100%2C1467&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Brussels-sprouts-11_11_2018.jpg?w=1512&amp;ssl=1 1512w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Brussels-sprouts-11_11_2018.jpg?w=1390&amp;ssl=1 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/>\u2026, two stalks of kale and about a dozen leeks.
