Getting some nice bonus broccoli off the new plants that grew up along the stalks of the old plants. Picked our last 2 tomatoes and pulled up the rest of the stakes. Waiting it seems like forever for the seed heads to mature on the red and white romaine. Still have swiss chard to pick, a few peppers, and the brussel sprouts have a way to go. Already lining up my cold weather indoor craft projects.

*SQUEAL* on the cold weather indoor craft projects; my Yarn Stash needs some culling.

Garden tasks for me this weekend and into next week, weather permitting, and not in any particular order:

Prune off Lilac suckers (been making me crazy all season!)

Cut a bouquet of Gladiolus (Food for the Soul!)

Dig Potatoes (just a few for the week)

Clean out the greenhouse (Puppies got in there - shredded a few things)

Dry more tomatoes in dehydrator

More Mowing, but that’s coming to an end - FINALLY!

Grind/Shred more Zucchini for freezer

Pick remaining Cucumbers, pull vines

Make Tomato Jelly

Make double-batch of Zucchini Muffins to freeze

Clean out Canned Goods Pantry, rotate remaining food from last season, organize and stash 2019 canned goods
