I was surprised at how different the broccoli tastes when its fresh - it was SO good. After a little fertilizer, we have a bunch of new heads!
This is the garden as we pulled up the sweet potatoes - one plant took over the whole garden! Think I'm going to try growing them in a burlap sack next time around...
Pictures of our bounty - for the majority of the fall season we were getting roughly 8-10 tomatoes per day, avocados daily from the tree, collards, 1 beet (ha), and every once and awhile we get broccoli. We currently average about 1 egg per day.
I've put up a trellis for sugar snap peas... still have some sunflowers! Also planted beets, radishes, and an early crop of corn. Heard from some friends that it is the best when its early. Not sure how it will fare, but hoping for little/no frost from here on out. We'll see if we get lucky.
Here's a look at the garden post-fall crop. Tomatoes were damaged by frost, but are still producing well.
This is the yellow plum, my most productive plant
The south bed, happily flourishing with new irrigation.
Collards... wish I enjoyed eating them more than I do! Will put up an awesome recipe for collard and broccoli greens slaw when I have the opportunity to make them.
