One of our largest tomatoes weighed in at barely two pounds.
Having left all the carrots in the ground until after first frost, we have wonderfully sweet carrots this fall! A few were rather wonderfully deformed, but tasty nonetheless.
You know it's fall when the trees drop their... pine needles?
One of our first art projects this school year was etching pumpkins. I like how they turned out!
The heirloom pineapple tomatoes were fabulously beautiful and delicious. Isn't this thing just a work of art? And so yummy. Now my mouth is watering. I'll be right back after I satisfy this craving.
Isaac spent most of the harvest time picking and husking Indian corn.
Levi kept busy pulling carrots.
And 'Lijah dug potatoes. Okay, you may remember way back in planting season I mentioned a new potato growing tactic I was trying this year. It didn't work. At all. This link shows what I tried -- http://lifehacker.com/5202849/grow-100-lbs-of-potatoes-in-4-square-feet. Maybe only certain varieties grow this way?
While most of the pumpkins were picked in September, a few are still working on their color.
This corn certainly has the color change thing down! Perhaps it could give the pumpkin a few pointers.
Still a few flowers around! This was one of the last bloomers in the yard.
The whole shebang! Lots of produce, proud boys, very happy mama!
