This is my harvest from yesterday. Other crops we harvest every other day are green beans, green onions and radishes. We are taking our extras to the church to share.

Husband made chile verde with the peppers! I'm sure it was good, but I don't eat that stuff! Son came over and shared it. He loves it too. By the way, we have used no fertilizer but the chicken shit from last year!

Which ones?! I love my Correlle dinnerware. It's so strong and light. After years of pottery, china and ceramicware...... I have the white diner with blue ringed edges. Lucky enough to have an outlet about 45 minutes away.

I have the green ivy pattern. I can't remember how long I've had them but I love them. I actually found kitchen curtains that match them several years ago.

I harvested this morning and brought in a huge head of broccoli and three good-sized zucchini. I dehydrated most of that, and then fermented pickles with zucchini, broccoli, cauliflower, cloves of garlic, dill, and a bit of red pepper. SO good! plus it gets the harvest in and not spoiling! Then I was outside again and found another big zucchini, hidden below. I can't keep up! I planted fall kale and more microgreens, some in the asparagus bed, and some where I pulled that huge cauliflower.

I planted the perennials I bought from the $3 lady: a Joe Pye Weed for down in the wet spot (well, one of the wet spots), a yellow daylily for the slope where I'm putting new daylilies, and a red bee balm in my border garden. I keep ending up with bee balm that's hybridized and won't spread. This lady has gardened at this farm for years, and I saw her bee balm. She sells the extras! Everything I buy from her spreads, just like I like it! I'm trying to fill two major steep slopes with spreading perennials. On one the soil is so bad I made berms out of recycled Christmas trees, and am filling in with chicken bedding and wood chips, growing a few hardy things (daylilies and comfrey - comfrey can handle chicken poop put right on top of it!). Slowly it will build soil that can hold the plants. It has bare spots now.

The other slope has better soil and is grassy, but is so steep it's hard to stand on, much less plant. But I persist on adding flowers! Some daylilies, mallow, evening primrose, gooseneck loosestrife, and I'm trying to get lupines and foxgloves growing there by throwing seeds down the slope. Black-eyed Susans, daisies, and purple clover also grow on that hill.

Goodnight, gardeners! Sleep well.
