Pole beans. First pick last night, and I got a couple pounds. Funny how they sneak up on you like that.
Zucchini. Funny how these grow like four inches overnight. Going to slice, blanch, and freeze.
Cherry tomatoes. Only about a half a dozen so far. Love 'em.
Lettuce. Enjoyed many a salad this summer. Starting to bolt because of the heat.
Cukes. Picked about six pickling cukes and two Straight 8s. Will surely be pickling this year.
Peaches. All picked. About 20 in the first year. Small but very flavorful.
Potatoes. Need to dig up Round 2.
Beets: Late, small, few.
Chard. Highly productive. Can't keep up with it.
Peppers. First jalapenos last night. Also a small Spanish hot pepper that we sauteed and salted and ate with tortilla chips and tacos. Nice and chipotle-y.
Tomatoes, corn. Not yet.

Happy Harvest! Your own peaches - wow!
ReplyDeleteChard can be frozen in ziploc bags -- I remove stems, cut and blanch briefly. Can use it in anything you'd use spinach: soups, lasagna, etc...
