Fall Garden…

The Aug planted fall crops are coming along nicely, the radishes, greens, onions and pea’s are all looking fab!

the fall root crops are all going strong, we have been digging out potatos from stage one and stage two plantings but not stage three plantings, the horseradish and the burdocks are all looking wonderful and will be greatly enjoyed in the house.

The fall tomato push is on, the plants are being pinched back and thinned out so that they will focus on the fruit instead of on growth, the amount of wild tomato plants found growing in the odd’s places on the farm this fall continue to amaze me.. we found some in a ditch line, and we are both stumped on how or why the seeds got there but none the less, the plant is a good three feet plus long and it has a number of tomato’s on it.

as always the non name “free cycle ” fall bearing rasberries are in full steam ahead, they give bumper crops towards the end of sept/most of oct and if the weather’s right, we were still getting fresh rasberries in the house in the first part of Nov last year..

So in the cooler wetter weather, what is doing well in your fall garden?

    So, do you replant burdock for fall; or are these leaves regrowth from a drought-stopped, already established plant?
    When do you harvest and which parts of the plant do you use?
