Healy’s Pride. The first melon was so sweet but each one after that has had less and less flavor. I’ll be growing another variety next year!
We are expecting a frost Friday evening! The temperature prediction keeps fluctuating between 34 and 32 degrees. I am getting everything ready just in case. Yesterday we pulled down all the dried beans and put them in the garage to finish off drying. We also started to put up the last 3 low tunnels I need to cover all our fall crops. The kids helped me sow hairy vetch into several garden beds as a cover crop. I also am finishing up planting the rest of the soil blocks.
In the garden:
-
Harvesting herbs, tomatoes, peppers, green beans, lettuce.
-
Transplanted soil blocks
A bushel and a half of apples. I washed them and set them all out to force myself to get to work!
In the kitchen:
-
Canned 23 quarts of applesauce
