October "Put the Garden to Bed" Workday

                    

The Garden is almost but not quite "put to bed". There are some peppers still ripening on the vine, and a few green tomatoes ripening off site. We have hope that we might get some broccoli (left, in south bed) and some sugar snap peas (center, in the south raised bed). Note the marigolds in the north raised bed are available for the picking.


The work crew pulled the tomato plants (disappointing crop this year) and also the previously harvested collards, kale, and spinach plants. The empty beds are now covered 'til next year. They also did a bit of weeding around the flower beds outside the garden fence.
