Harvest and New Plantings

We arrived back from a wonderful visit to Port Townsend to find a lot of work to be done in the garden.

Our neighbors were kind enough to water for us and nothing was stressed but much was ready for harvest.

Today we harvested the first two heads of cabbage, eggplant, cucumber, beets, lettuce, snow peas, carrots and Kentucky Wonder and Fortex green beans.

My turnips came out a bit bumpy as I was not aggressive enough in my thinning. Lesson learned. I now get to spend this afternoon prepping beans and carrots for freezing.

This afternoon I will clean veg and plant new seeds. Decisions, decisions.
