Squash bed... our favorite squash we grew this year was the Thelma Sanders Sweet Potato squash. we had 19 squashes at the end of the season from 2 plants and we had planted a little late even! we are definitely growing those again!
This is Jerry's favorite tomato... the Egg Yolk tomato. they are about the size and color of an egg yolk! They are sooo good! We will grow these again of course!
The Cabbage/Cauliflower/Broccoli bed. These were not hugely successful... I planted too late, mostly. We did get some cabbage, one cauliflower, and a few sprigs of VERY strong broccoli! the Brussels sprouts didn't mature though.
These were the sweet potatoes. Very pretty plant, in the Morning Glory family... they even bloomed!
Paul Robeson tomato... this is ripe. Isn't it pretty!?
Some peppers that we got... the red and yellow are stuffing peppers. they are too tiny. I don't have the patience for them... the black ones are hot!
A Pie Pumpkin. I will have to look up the exact name... i can't remember right now... Anyways it is cute, huh?
Some beautiful eggplant. Black Champion, Pink Tung and the Japanese White Egg.
This is the most beautiful tomato i have ever seen! I don't know its name as it was an experimental one given to us... We just recieved a book from Baker Creek Seeds (www.rareseeds.com) the other days... they had this one in it this year. I will look it up and put its name here later.
We actually were able to harvest grapes off our vine this year! We had just over 5 pounds of grapes! These were some of the pretty bunches! So exciting!
Tomato sauce that we were canning! I just thought it looked so pretty! i had to share!!!
We also made some salsa, but i have to keep experimenting with recipes for salsa though... we weren't crazy about ours this year. It was fun though!
