All done. Yesterday I harvested the fall crop of beets….not very large ones. I tried to pull a couple last weekend but they were frozen solid in the ground. I think next year I need to start them earlier than late August. I think a little bit of the parsley may have made it through last week’s cold snap. So, hopefully there’ll be two things on the Thanksgiving table from the garden. We’ll see.

A big day. We harvested our first produce that wasn’t lettuce or herbs. We roasted them in foil in the outdoor oven (i.e. the gas grill) and had them in salad. Sweet as candy.

Beets are bustin’ out all over. We’ve got three kinds: Red Ace, Early Wonder and Cioggia.
