An unexpected harvest

I had not planned on harvesting any potatoes until Mid-July/August but the patch with the Chieftain and yellow potatoes were just not doing that well. So, dig we did and got a decent harvest for the amount of time those little guys were in the ground.

With the weather I admit I’ve been a little depressed, but yesterday the sun (along with a Summer Solstice sale from Farmington Gardens) encouraged me to do the rest of the buying for the season. So, I now have:

1 hops tree (yay hops)
2 bushes of Willamette raspberries
2 bushes of Toro blueberries
2 lipstick strawberry plants
1 San Marzano tomato plant
1 Zebra tomato plant
1 black plum tomato plant

I totally forgot to get the tomato frames so I will have to run out and get those today.

Diversify, diversify, diversify…right?

Today's harvest

I can't believe our potatoes and carrots are still producing!!

We still have a couple more weeks to go on the potatoes and carrots and by then the tomatos should be ready.

Yum!

Itty Bitty Carrot Harvest

It's always...interesting the first year. Our fingerling potatos are doing very well, here is the yield from just on plant.

Our carrots...well, I dub this year the "itty bitty carrot" harvest year. Next year I promise we will plant you farther apart and in deeper soil.
