Garden Wrap Up

26 Dec

Rutgers tomato

I harvested the last ripe tomato of the season in October. I never imaged that I could pick a red tomato off the vine at the end of October. Overall, this year’s tomato harvest wasn’t as plentiful as last years. We grew different varieties and that obviously made all of the difference.

poblano peppers

We had a very productive Poblano harvest this season. It’s the first time we’ve tried to grow any type of pepper. The plant grew remarkably large, but didn’t produce fruit until late in the season. We dried the peppers we couldn’t use and have been using them since in chili, tacos, and the like.

new beets

We also had successful harvests of beets, cilantro, basil, and thyme. I actually got in two beet crops this season. This photo is of the second crop. It wasn’t as big as the first but still edible and delicious.
