Wow, we have definitely changed seasons! One week it's 90 degrees hot summer and the next it's 60s and fall! The tomatoes, zucchini and cucumbers have pretty much gone by the wayside. If we have a late frost, we may have a few more tomatoes out of the hoop house as there are several green ones yet. We will be starting in picking the winter squash. There will be acorn, butternut, spaghetti and a few other types. We also have yet to dig the sweet potatoes, so those are some things to look forward to. This is the 19th week of the CSA so only about 6 more weeks to go. I will probably have to go back to baking to supplement your boxes, but hopefully not till next week!

We have been busy with apples, drying and making applesauce. I also made some apple jam with maple syrup! That was pretty good!. We went to an auction last week and bought 10 foot and 8 foot metal posts, so this winter maybe we will get some deer fencing up around the garden area!
