We harvested the last of the potatoes this weekend so the garden is now closed for the year. All that is left is to restock it with sheep and goat poo, till the soil, and let if set for the Winter.
All in all it was a great year! We got more squash than we could possibly eat, many many days worth of tomatoes, an equally huge haul of cucumbers, and well over 20 lbs of potatoes. Of course next year we will try to do better!

Glad you can put the garden to bed....I'm still trying to reclaim some of my losses from the drought / heat this summer & am waiting for new beets, peas and carrots to come up in the raised beds.
ReplyDeleteNice look'n taters! :)
great work! it must be a relief to know the harvest is in... i'm still waiting for a hard frost so that i can call it quits... i'm getting very tired of all this working. bring on the sloth!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is, wow! I have enough and to share, you have enough and to sell!!! Cool!
ReplyDeleteCarolyn - The potatoes taste great too!
ReplyDeleteOFG - It is actually kind of sad because I will miss my own market, although sloth is tempting...
Cat - Not quite that much but we do have more than we can use!
