Hi All,

We donated 41 lbs of veggies to the food bank today.

It was such a lovely day yesterday, and I was aware that  the forecast for today was to be rainy, so I wanted to harvest what I could to get ahead of the curve.  Sorry to tell you that, apart from the plant near the garage, the tomatoes are toast - and the squash vines don't look too cheerful, either.  There must have been a frost that nobody heard about.  Roger's bean pyramid survived though, and I harvested a lot of beans.  Also salvaged whatever tomatoes looked viable,  pulled some carrots, beets and parsnips.  Today, I did the broccoli and kale, and humped a few of the squash to the car.  Had a lovely time.

We donated 50 lbs of veggies to the food bank today, in spite of there not being a lot to harvest. Some Delicata squash made the difference..  Don't worry Naomi - there are still plenty.  Fran harvested them as the vines were dead.

Happy weekend,

Barb
