Had more badger flame beets today. Haven’t had to buy any vegetables since about mid May. Hopefully I get there with fruit as my treees start to come in in the next few years lol

Tonights dinner included the first of the Nectar babe Nectarines, a singular (so far) Spice Zee Nectaplum that the sugar ants got to first but I took back, and an express cabbage that wasn’t as “express” as I hoped but still tastes pretty good!

I should have taken pictures, but over the weekend I made homemade tagliatelle with basil pesto. Pesto was made in our mortar and pestle from my emerald towers basil.

I’ll have green beans, tomatoes, okra, potatoes, and sweet corn for dinner tomorrow. All are from my garden.

Green beans, tomatoes, okra, potatoes, sweet corn, cucumber, and a couple of mild peppers are on the table tonight. My beans are just now getting to the point where they are producing at their peak. I love the Alabama #1 beans because they are so incredibly productive. I grew a short section of “goose” beans which are strictly for green shellies. They are at the perfect stage to be picked, i.e. they mature relatively early which is a useful trait in short season areas. I also have some Turkey Craw which gave a good yield today. They are unique because the can be used as snaps, green shellies, dry beans, and as leather britches.

Made garden egg drop soup a couple nights ago for supper.
In the colander: chayoye tips, longevity spinach, fava tips, amaranth, tomato leaves.
Found out that- yes, I should remove the fuzzy cover over hollyhock seed pod.
