Harvesting Jardin

What's better to do on this nice fall day except harvest jardin.


The green pepper was sweet two weeks ago, wonder what it's like now.


Look at this beautiful cucumber.


Oops, wrong picture. Now look at this beautiful cucumber.


Eggplants make it once every three years it seems (coinciding with warm visitor in town). But always one eggplant only.


Last year, the zucchini was in abundance. This year, a lonely dried up zucchini showed up organically in the compost.


The moment we have all been waiting for, one (actually three) of the hundreds of jardin's green tomatoes turn red.


So I may as well make some use of green tomatoes along the way.


A surprise squash plant popped up, and popped one squash (no idea what kind).


But the fondest memory of the harvesting jardin day is the hazelnut that my new squirrel friend decided to leave me.


 Tune back tomorrow to read what I did with the harvest.
