Wednesday walk through the garden and lots of blooms! 9-6-17

The garden is starting to fizzle out, but we are still harvesting green beans, cucumbers, cucumelons and lots of tomatoes! I’m hoping to harvest a watermelon or 2 this season!

I’m not sure what this is growing out of the compost bin! It looks like a yellow zucchini, but it is vining like a pumpkin!

We are also still getting peppers, so we will be making some Appalachian style chili sauce. My Dad loves it, so of course I’m going to make him some!

The popcorn is a good bit taller than me and has tassels!

The pumpkin vines are dying off, but at least we are getting a few pumpkins!

The fall beets are growing right up out of the ground!

The sweet potatoes are growing all over the place! I can’t wait to see how much that we harvest this year!!

And I’m pretty proud to share that we made some ketchup this year out of our own Roma tomatoes! We just used one of the Mrs. Wage’s seasoning packets!

And, there are lots of beautiful blooms still around for our pollinators!
