More pickings from community garden as well - cucumbers overload, zucchini and tomatoes.
End of July Harvest
This week was finally cool enough to do some work in the garden and keep picking. Not much, but plenty to eat for us, including one of my larger onions - coming at 11.8oz. Loved how it felt in my hand. Also picked were zucchini, soybeans, tomatoes, potatoes and peppers.
This week I have to be on the road so most of the harvest will be picked by others at the plots - better than going to waste by overgrowing.

Wow! Very nice harvests.
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteNice size onion, lots of cucumbers and lucky you to get zucchini, potatoes and tomatoes. Nancy
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy, it was a pretty good week.
DeleteThat's a big onion! I just pulled my yellow onions and most were pretty small. The rest of your harvest is great, I'm particularly admiring those tomatoes. Have a nice trip.
ReplyDeleteActually most sof my onions are small and medium size, it's only few that were planted in a patch of manure that are really big. And thanks, I love my tomatoes too!
DeleteWhat I wouldn't give to have a haul of tomatoes like you have there! And everything else looks gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, out of 60 plants I'd better get something! :)
DeleteThat is a HUGE onion, lovely harvest. My soy beans should be ready soon, need to get to them before the critters.
ReplyDeleteI think I pulled soy a bit too early but i was afraid that bunnies would get them. They were very tasty boiled.
DeleteJenny, I am sorry you have been hit with a heat wave, but your harvests look great. I am jealous of all those tomatoes, but I am not getting good harvests at all. I planted 16 plants this year and I thought I would have tomatoes galore, but nope been too wet. I have hard enough for sandwiches and a few meals, but not enough to put away.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your lost tomatoes, many of mine don't produce anything this year either and just died off without any fruit. hope next year will be better.
DeleteYour tomatoes and cucumbers are really producing, and they looks so pretty! My tomatoes are scarred up from splitting open because of the rain.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to make pickles with your lovely pile of cucumbers?
Thanks, I also have plenty of tomatoes that split this week after late Sunday rainstorm. And yes, we've made many jars of pickles already.
DeleteOh I am not getting enough pickling cucumbers, so yours look great! Lots of good stuff this week!
ReplyDeleteThanks, we definitely have enough pickles!
DeleteWhat a wonderful crop of tomatoes, I see a few of my favourite varieties, I am just starting to sow the seeds for my tomatoe and summer crops here.
ReplyDeleteoh I can't wait to see your garden full in production as we turn to winter :)
