First week of August Harvest

Welcome to the last month of summer. I can't believe it's August already. Time went somewhere and I didn't notice it. Oh well. Garden is turning toward producing more of hot-weather staples and is definitely in transition. First tomatoes starting to come in, while brassicas are on their way out. We definitely have a good variety to eat at home and plenty to share.  Sadly my berry run has come to an end - no more wineberries and some of the last blueberries have been scooped up. It was really good year for them. I have few struggling blackberries for later and will get some grapes but it's not the same. We did get to try one tiny bunch that I stripped from large one from front garden - it's a first time that this variety produced so I couldn't wait to see what it would taste like - it was wonderful! still can use 3-4 weeks on the vine, but already very sweet.

At the farm, the beans have finished producing - I've been giving them away without even bringing home. I saw that potato wines are dying out so will be picking potatoes soon. At home I only had enough to eat "young", but most of the storage potatoes are going to be from farm.

And my yellow and purple beans at home went into round 2 of production so will have plenty to eat each day. I find that I like yellow ones better than purple, though my hubby likes them all.

So what are you harvesting in your gardens this week? Stop by Daphne's to see how others are doing.
