THE SEPTEMBER GARDEN.

The garden is an amazingly strange place right now....cool nights and hot days mean that we have an abundance of fall AND summer vegetables.

We are already harvesting kale, lettuce, and arugula - and the pumpkins and winter squash are ready as well.

After the trauma of last year, it has been a blessing of a season for us.- Hannah.tomatoes. peppers and eggplant. sweet peppers.sweet potatoes.
