My old 'Back Forty' at my other farm. (1905) (South Central Wisconsin) It's not nearly as gorgeous in the Fall at the 'new' (1900) (SE Wisconsin) farm because we have mostly Burr Oak, Black Walnut and Evergreens, but there's a splash of color here and there and we have a lot of Birch and Poplar, so the white/gold with all the Evergreen is pretty. This was in 2011, a year Mother Nature got everything perfect. :)
Hundreds of tomatoes so far, and a few Butternut squash, glory to God!, even though the temps are in mostly 60's on average (36F tonite).
Goliath Toms, planted in mid May at about 12'' tall and in prime sun, have not produced much, while Early Girls started at a few inches in late May are the healthiest and more fruitful among large toms. Some of which are "volunteer" tom plants.
Supersweet 100 Cherry toms are bar fa the most fruitful and healthy overall, with plenty to share, praise the Lord.
Quite a contrast in seasons.
