Last Evening Off

We are making chili tonight and I plan on pickling the banana peppers from the garden! The sweet potatoes are just about ready to pick as well so the harvest is coming in. The tomatillos are there but tiny.

The tomatoes didn't do well at all. Too hot and they burned midseason. Next year we are going to grow more conventional crops like onions, beans, potatoes, a different variety of tomatoes. Garlic, which will be planted very shortly, and stuff we use in cooking weekly.

We started the garden too late in the growing season for those crops and it was already too hot by the time the gardens were built.

It's ok though, they are established now, the soil is in great shape. We'll be ready on the first day of planting season to get it all in the ground!
