The garden is slowly winding down for the winter. We already had a freeze, most things have turned brown. That is, except for the pumpkins and broccoli!!
We picked the closest one in the above picture, and the three in the lower picture. There are four left to go, and they are quite green still, so it may be another week.
The broccoli is still growing like crazy! I hate to admit, but we have had so much broccoli that we have let a lot go to flower and wasted. So we know not to plant so much next year (I swear, the seed germinating rate was like 100%) and we will save the space for more carrots. The carrots turned out wonderful, and I am sure we could have ate more had we planted more.
