Garden cleanup in progress.

The weather allowed not only to do some work in the garden but to light up the grill one more time.

Everything here is home grown — squash, shishitos, beans, okra, chilies — besides the chicken.

Beans and shishitos did really good this year. Beans probably because they were high up on poles. Chilies are still going strong. Planted right under the dryer vent, they built up some nice heat. Squash we evenly split with the resident groundhog — sharing is caring.

There’s still amaranth we need to collect for my stinky tofu project before deer gets it all.

Lots of okra this year. Last time we had only vigorous plants and no fruit which made me nervous. Our garden is highly visible from the street and okra leaves look suspicious if you’ve ever seen them.🤫🚬🪴
