The wind and rain has taken a toll on my garden. It's no longer the lush, green, beautiful garden I was so proud of this summer.....
The tomato trees fell over AGAIN and crushed my pepper plants. We had to tie the tomato cages to keep them standing. The soil is soft from all the rain so the cages can't hold the plants up.
The Scotia, Early Girl and Big Beef tomatoes are all over, the plants have died and are a mess. Time to pull them out!
We gathered all the green tomatoes that fell off while we were standing the plants back up...
And, of course, the meat chickens got their share of the garden goodies. We gathered a huge bucket of over ripe, damaged tomatoes for them....
I am so happy to see them outside enjoying the fresh air. I am also happy the grass seed I scattered in the run grew quickly! It's looking good.
We picked the squash. Not a bad lot for a little garden....
And these tomatoes are going to be made into tomato sauce....that's the next post!
