I can't believe it has been two weeks since I last posted. Time goes by so fast! We have been busy harvesting, canning, and preparing for the Fall crop to go in.
We have harvested over 400 cucumbers, about 20 cantaloupe, 20 honeydew, and over 30 watermelons. We even harvested about 25 pumpkins already. We are so grateful all of the bounty.
Damian has canned dill pickles, bread and butter pickles, and relish. I have canned pickled watermelon rinds and plan to make watermelon jelly too. I even found a recipe for honeydew ice cream that I intend to try soon!
Since we have had so much fun and success, Damian and I plan to continue our farming this Fall by planting cooler weather crops soon. There will be cabbages, broccoli, artichokes, and more. Check for more updates soon!
