Harvest Monday

Harvest Monday is hosted by Daphne's Dandelions.
Stop by and check out who's harvesting what this week.

I was surprised this week by ripe tomatoes. The vines are loaded with green tomatoes and the days have been just warm enough to ripen a few of them.

Above, another pound of beans harvested this week. I thought the plants were slowing down, but they proved me wrong.

I'd really like to start major garden clean up, but everything seems to still be growing. The last time this happened, the first frost was in late November. A very early snow followed and the garden did not get cleaned up till spring! I guess there are worse things that could happen ;)

  1. My harvest this week is tomatoes, eggplant and peppers. The warm weather has been great for the summer veggies in the Fall!

  2. Pretty harvest. I like getting my garden cleaned up in the fall because spring is so busy. But sometimes it just doesn't happen. I haven't pulled down the last of the tomatoes yet either. Or the last zucchini. They still are producing very slowly so I just can't bear to get rid of them yet.
