Most of this week was spent managing the harvest and beginning to put the garden to rest. Since there is no frost expected for at least another two weeks, I've decided to leave lots of stuff to continue growing.
I did pull the last of the bush beans and harvested the first of the pole beans and froze them for a winter meal.
The tomatoes are just starting but there aren't enough to do anything with them except eat them fresh. So I took the ripest of the excess, cubed them and froze them. When we get enough to process, I'll thaw and put them through the mill.
There is a half decent grape crop this year but it needs a bit more time to ripen.
I did yank the rest of the beets and made some sweet pickles. I forget how much work and mess there is when pickling beets!
