A few more tomatoes, and the last of the zuccini for the year. We're getting down to the low 40s now and my greenhouse is not heated, so I expect to be pulling up the tomatoes to ripen in the garage hanging upside-down by the roots in the next week or two.
a few more small tomatoes, a mess of turnip greens, and four turnips. Probably will not feed me but a older neighbor who loves them more than my husband.
Got the first of this planting of crowder peas, toms and peppers blooming, winter squash blooming, planted: broccoli, cauliflower, carrots today. (and one stray pineapple popped up in AUGUST, we'll see how that one turns out...)
Sorrel greens (can't find these in stores, too gentle), it has sour taste, lots of vitamin C, it requires zero care, zero weeding, spaying or anything else, it's perennial, it's producing greens since April and most importantly it doesn't appeal to most pests here in Ohio, so it's nice green undamaged by pests leaves without any chemicals on them.

All that's left is one cucumber and a bunch of tomatoes, but it's 38 this morning so even with the greenhouse this weekend everything gets pulled up for the year. It's been the best summer for crops we have had in 20 years so I hate to see it ending.

Not in my part of Indiana lots of gardens didn't do well this year and most all produced late so not much bounty in abundance when it did ripen. Congrats on yours though.
