Great harvest pix, GLC!
I just got home from a firend's house where I picked a big batch of her pickling cucumbers and left her a big bag of fresh lettuce and scallions in exchange.
Going to make my first bread and butter pickles this week!
Deeaimond- tomato looks good- loosen those ties around the stalk so the stem can keep growing without getting choked. Looks like it could benifit from a bit more sun if you have it. Worm castings are good for it!

a canning recipe for Bloody Mary Mix!
I found this recipe for Bloody Mary mix and thought some of you might have surplus tomatoes. I added extra tabasco and horseradish to give it some bite. Haven't had any as a bloody mary, but as just veggie juice it's really tasty!

Enjoy!

Great harvest GLC - If I did not water for 3 weeks; no way would we have anything of any value! that is the life when you live at 7,000 feet in Arizona!
I'm lucky if things do okay if I don't water for 3 days!

Spoke - water was the one thing we did do! We can't go without watering here in the summer or everything would die in about 3 days, too. Winter it rains, summer...not so much!

Wow GLC! Great harvest!!
Those concord grape looks yummy. Our acorn squash was a bonus too... from a compost pile. Ours are much smaller than yours. Still good eats.
Oh and the pumpkins... Are they sugar variety? looks yummy.

Yep, New England sugar pie pumpkins - they did wonderfully! We've already harvested 8 from three vines and there are still another 5 or so out there growing/ripening! I haven't eaten one yet, but hopefully soon.
