Fresh peppers in late September. Peppers? Peppers!!

Did you see the September summer squash? A volunteer!

With an unwelcome visitor.

Two tiny carrots.

And the only Brussels sprouts that survived the flea beetles (no pesticide).

A reminder why growing a garden is a great idea.

The equinox will be here in 2 days and it’s still summerlike in Virginia. Sadly, the garden is winding down. There’s stuff to harvest, but that won’t last too much longer.

Two hours of cleaning in the garden happened today.

Sadly, that purple thing is an eggplant. I have failed as a gardener.

The volunteer sycamore is getting too big for the garden now.

Garden produce from two days.

Garden produce from two days.

When the garden is in high production, picking every day or two is pretty much a good idea. This is probably the last week of super high garden production. After two days, a sweep brought in: corn, tomato, onion, pepper, squash, basil, beet.

There’s plenty more to pick and the garden will likely go into October, but this is likely the peak of production for 2014.
