| The summer squash collection |
It's a chilly morning - but the bright sun is lighting up the trees around our garden. I love fall! But, this (as of yet - frost-free) weather has got me thinking about the spring/summer and what we enjoyed this year.. We're still harvesting plenty from the garden - 2 lovely zucchini yesterday, bowls of greens, Japanese turnips, beets, carrots, kale, cucumbers and much more, but I thought I'd share some of my favourite pic's from the past few months:
 |
| A quick trip to the garden = a bowl full of food! |
 |
| Drunken Woman lettuce. Enough said. |
 |
| Garlic love |
 |
| Mexico Midget, Sungold, Japanese Mandarin |
 |
| Sungold versus a monster Persimmon |
 |
| Persimmon bigger than my hand! |
 |
| Odd little 'Pink Fir Apple' potato. |
 |
| The Travelling Tomato - crazy!! |
 |
| Japanese Mandarin tomato with Purple Podded Pole beans |
 |
| Baby eggplants and tomatoes |
 |
| Sweet! |
 |
| The peanuts! SOOOOOOOO good! And super easy to grow. |
 |
| Japanese Turnips, another favourite |
 |
| My barrel-shaped red heirloom onions. |
Hello! I love your blog, it gives me hope for my garden! :)
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find peanut seeds? (Seed peanuts?) I would love to grow them but haven't seen them available at garden centers or catalogues. I'm in Manitoba.
Thanks much,
Becky
Hi Becky - thanks so much!! You will be able to get them in spring 2013 at www.annapolisseeds.com which is a fabulous NS seed company. OSC in Ontario also offers them.. just stick to the hardy Valencia type! :) Good luck.. Niki
