There is fear of a possible frost on Sunday night, so for the next few days we're harvesting as much of the remaining crops as possible up at the farm. This evening a few of us went up and picked lots of tomatoes, as well as some peppers, watermelon, strawberries (yes there still were some!), and beets. Erick and I will be up again on Sunday afternoon. We like the farm. Erick loves going after a day cooped up in the hospital. I love it after a day crouched over knitting/the computer. Such a wonderful relief to be outside doing some manual labour. Thank you farm.

fall harvesting.
Sometimes iphone photos just have to suffice.
Yesterday a bunch of us went up to the farm. It was such a beautiful day to be out in the fresh air pulling weeds and harvesting food. Sunny, with a nice breeze to keep us cool. September is a bountiful month. Tomatoes, squash, melons, peppers, broccoli, beets, and zinnia. There was even another round of delicious strawberries!
And farm days have their own signature drink now. Fresh squeezed lime juice by Amanda, plus gin. Most excellent.
