Harvests & updates

It's been a long hot summer and I actually managed to grow a social life of sorts. I haven't been taking pictures, I haven't been weighing harvests, I haven't been planting, and I haven't been updating... bad girl.

I offer an apology to my readers, and an approximate description of harvests and current garden conditions, as well as info regarding future plans.

The onions never matured.

We did eat a bunch of these already. Very tasty!

Garlic, garlic, garlic!

We've been picking peas and snap beans as they mature and recently have been able to pick some cherry and plum tomatoes as well. I've also just harvested the onions and garlic.

And now for the garden tour:

Garlic Harvest

The tops of the garlic didn't really flower, it... budded.

 They look like little cloves and I'm going to plant them this fall.

These are the four garlic heads from the front of the house.

They're VERY dirty and don't seem to want to come clean. 

I may have left them in too long because the stems came right out of the center.

Small head gave 4 cloves once peeled.

They smelled and tasted delicious. A bit more "fresh" or "green" tasting than I'm used to with store stuff but this was store stock so... *shrug*.

They Grow Up So Fast

Two of the "baby" raccoons.

I Know It's Been a While But

There's not much to say.
The raccoons learned their lesson and are growing fast. (I see them about once a week in the mornings)
The food is growing.

Purple peas!
