WOW, lots of exciting pics, information, and encouragement. Sjoerd, your applesauce would sell easily here, but eating it in cold of winter...
I'm certain we all look forward to Rapunzel's kinfolk showing up in the Spring of 2018 .
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your entire self. Fascinating while she lasted.
We used Crimson Clover one winter. Bunnies thrive on it.
Cayuga, I'm impressed. Sjoerd asked my question about the background trees. We must be blessed. Our Asparagus has never been attacked by any pest.
Isn't it interesting that we have different experiences with our veggies.

Carolyn, we have tomatoes only for eating. Today we did a lot of cleanup. I picked all the remaining green peppers off and froze a quart. Also...
I would be tempted to allow them to recover on their own, but decided to agree with Eileen and Cayuga in scooping soil around the base and tieing...
I picked Kale. Surprise. The Cabbage moth worms have attacked without my knowing and in spite of garlic spray.
You have me wondering what kind of bread.
