Harvest


I'm proud of myself for actually getting a little closer to my goal of growing some of my own produce this year (and I even made a compost pile)!

These are lemon cucumbers. I had hundreds of lemon cucumbers. You know, you can give away one or two cucumbers, but most people don't want a bag of 10. Next year I'm going to figure out how to donate garden produce to the Marin Community Food Bank. I also planted eggplant, and have one on the vine, still. And strawberries, lettuce, parsley, oregano, bell peppers, lemons, lemon balm, lemon thyme, thai basil, sweet basil, chocolate mint, various tomatoes and a peach tree that grew about four peaches this year. Next year I'm going to try to grow exotic varieties of pumpkins.

My own private New Hampshire.
