I have yet to harvest everything and turn over my garden to rest for the winter…been pressed for time. Luckily we haven’t had a hard frost yet. I still have carrots, potatoes and turnips to dig up, and a few broccoli plants are still going. Here are some turnips. I’m going to freeze the greens and store the roots (the turnips) in the fridge. I use them in mashed potatoes, chili, stews, soups, and veggie breads.
Here is the broccoli; no heads this late but I’m going harvest these and use the leaves and stalks in stir frys, soups, and salads.
The grape vines at rest, had an ok season
The apple tree all bare! resting
