Last of the greens

Not much left in the garden that is still green, except the late planting of Brussel Sprouts....

Fall carrots

I love harvesting carrots in the Fall after a couple of frosts. 

It seems to make them sweeter. 

I had some big help with my harvest ... Yes, she gets the "just her size " tiny ones but my little grubby garden helper needs a haircut....Can you tell? 

We settled for pulling her bangs back in a ponytail so she can at least see where she's going until we can get her a fancy hair appointment. It's not always glamorous being a garden girl!

Garlic Planting time

Here we go again.... Its garlic planting time for my little garden.

According to the Farmers Almanac, October 28th. & 29th. is a great time to plant root your crops. So, that being said, today was the day to get this task done before the most barren period on October 30th. and 31st.

This year's varieties are

• Majestic
•  Montana Giant 
• Georgian Crystal

*The Bad news*
Found a gopher hole in the garden bed that I was preparing to plant in.
The gopher trap has been set and now we wait and see if we get lucky and trap those little buggers before they start doing damage!
