| So many garden helpers! Jane Austen is napping in chicken poop... (She thinks she's helping.) |
 |
| The REAL helper - Jeremy The Cat |
 |
| Getting the job done. Gross. But truly the reason we have him! |
 |
| King sometimes would visit the garden and help out too! ALL SMILES WHEN HE COMES! |
 |
| Cucumbers and tomatoes |
 |
| Purple and Curly Kale - I have noticed over the years that I like the purple kale the best! - It is less bitter and the bugs leave it alone more than the curly kind. |
 |
| LITERALLY PURPLE. I love it! |
 |
| We get A LOT of rain... |
 |
| The last of the carrots! Roasted with honey and butter. I forgot to use foil... HIGHLY recommend using foil to avoid hours of cleanup. |
 |
| To store sweet potatoes: Leave the dirt on - rub off as much as you can, Store in baskets with some clean hay or straw in a cool dry place. I like to wait a few months before using. They are not stringy or too starchy if you wait. |
 |
| (It seriously took up an ENTIRE garden bed to grow two baskets of sweet potatoes... We were left with a mountain of sweet potato leaves and debris. Thank goodness the chicken ladies loved the mountain!) |
 |
| The plants for the Winter/Spring Garden start in the garage in the FALL. (...Our neighbors used to think Dr D was growing something else.) |
