Here are some pictures of a few things we harvested in October this year!
We grew the cutest, most perfectly round pumpkin! Also pictured here is a Gourd, the last yellow squash of the year (we had quite a few) and the last couple cucumbers (we had a lot of those)!!
Turnips! Lots of large turnips! I didn't really know what to do with these but I found a lovely recipe that involved roasting them with some oil, garlic, and a drizzle of honey. They were delicious!
Tomatillos! The deer ate all the tomatoes, but they didn't really touch the tomatillo plants!
Here are the peeled tomatillos, ready to be roasted with some peppers so we can make Salsa Verde!
The Herb Garden flourished! As you can see from these pictures taken on October 17, the area is quite full of many different herbs and flowers!
I harvested quite a few herbs for making teas and tinctures - here are pictures of Feverfew, Catnip, and Valerian Root -
So, despite some setbacks, we still had success and things to be thankful for!
