Garden Roundup for September 2023

During the month of September, our hens gave us 97 eggs.  From our garden we got 1 zucchini, 1 watermelon, 2 cabbages, the last of the corn, the last of the tomatoes, the last of the peppers, the last of the shell beans, as well as a couple buckets of potatoes.  We also picked a couple buckets of grapes, as well as a few black berries and red raspberries.  We also picked several buckets of apples.  Most are for pies, but one tree makes good applesauce. 

The only thing left to pick are some cabbages, maybe a zucchini, most of the potatoes, and some apples.  The earliest frost date for here is in the first week of October.  The forecast only shows it getting down into the 40’s for the next week or so, but most things are dying back and getting ready for winter.  Since not much will happen in the garden for the next few months, I think I’ll hold off on these monthly updates.  I’ll do a roundup for the year, and then start these up again next spring.
