Ahh, a little fall harvest... "Peanut buttercrunch" Lettuce, as my daughter calls it! Ha, we grow "Peanut Butternut" Squash too! And a few more nice tomatoes. There is no sign of a frost coming in the 7 day forecast, so that gives them more time! **Happy Face** There are a few peas in there too. Peas are not being very productive....blah! They did better in the spring. I haven't even collected enough for a baby food portion yet. Not that he would eat them...he has all the sudden got super picky! Stinker!
Oh, and the Chard! These came off of a plant that is lucky to have survived all the animal damage. First it had a nibbler, then the critter digger! But, it looks well doesn't it? Despite it's obstacles! This looks to be about enough for a pizza! I think I see chard pizza in the future!
Well, it's small, but I am still harvesting and that feels good!
This weeks Harvest included
4 Chard Leaves
13 Juliet Tomatoes
4 Tomatoes
10 Serrano Peppers
1 Habanero Pepper
5 Peas

See the link above for a complete harvest for the season.
Don't forget to visit Daphne's Dandelions to see what other gardeners are harvesting this fall!
I look forward to sharing a post about Fall Colors in the next day or two.
Small, but wonderful harvest, plenty enough for the whole family. / Tyra

yay for your peanut butter-everything harvest!
ReplyDelete"peanut buttercrunch"...hehe, that's funny...
ReplyDeleteThe red and other colored chards are such a festive fall crop in the garden - a splash of color when the garden is getting dark and somewhat bare of harvestable items. The plant looks like it bounced back well from it's early trials.
ReplyDeletePeanut butternut - sounds like a good recipe. Chard seems to be the plant of the hour on this Harvest Monday. Glad you had a plant that made it through the trials of planthood.
ReplyDeleteI've had problems getting good harvests from fall peas too. They produce, but not up to their spring standards. Pretty harvest.
