We've been enjoying raspberries with breakfast each morning for the past month and the Bumblebees are doing their best to keep them going for a while yet. If you're a bit intimidated by pruning, 'Heritage' is a good variety to grow. Just mow the row off completely in late fall and the canes that regrow in spring will be fruiting by late summer. Repeat ... 10/8/26photos

A perfect day for getting next year's garlic into the ground. Note the clove spacing within the rows (Dorothy's left hand) and soil depth above each clove (right hand). A light dusting of kelp and rock phosphate before the bed is raked level. Then a few inches of pine needles for mulch and they're all set for winter. 10/6/26photo

Phenomenal growth on the Sweet Potatoes this summer... a single row of plants is at least 8' wide. It'll soon be time to harvest and cure your Sweet Potatoes. Here's how: Before we get a heavy frost, dig the tubers and place them carefully in baskets or boxes with black plastic loosely over top (check occasionally to see that they are not staying wet). Be careful not to bruise or scratch them. Place in a warm (27 C) spot (sunny window or sunroom are ideal) to cure for 10 - 14 days. Then take off the plastic and store at 15 C. Properly cured they should store up to a year and the flavour actually improves in storage as the starches gradually convert to sugar. 9/14/26photo

If there was one vegetable that I couldn't do without, it would like be the humble potato ... of course it would need to be a homegrown, organic one ... no commercial spud that we've ever had quite measured up. What vegetable could you not do without? 9/13/26photo
