It’s 80*F a couple days after our average first frost date! And warm weather is still ahead of us. It’s great to be still picking peppers and green beans, though the rest of my summer crops have faded with the fading light. i am ready to put up a winter low tunnel over greens, but no need for it yet. the hoops are standing bare and waiting.

Work today in my home garden:
– pull carrots
– pick green and red chile peppers
– start bagging late blight infected tomato debris for disposal in the trash (I should have done this earlier, but there is so much that I piled it and let it rot down for a while.)
