Harvest season is in full swing. Jess did most of the ladder work this year ("15 years since our last time-loss injury!") as we harvested the second apple tree. Need to prune the top a bit this fall, I think.
We got a goodly amount of apples and we baked and sauced most them the first week.
We ended up with four gallons of apple sauce and half gallon of apple butter. Plus pies and muffins and such.
The tomatoes continue to produce. The six of the black Russian tomatoes is crazy. The slice on the left covers the whole piece of bread!
We've been saucing a lot. The different coloured tomatoes each give different coloured pulp!
I also harvested the first (of four, I expect) pumpkins. They are each the size of a five-pin bowling ball.
This one as one of the yellow fleshed ones and tasted pretty good. It was very juicy, moderately sweet and had a lot of seeds. We'll see what the next few are like.
