So, all refreshed and back from a great trip to the SSE in Iowa, those pesty fall garden jobs await. In between tropical type downpours I hope to continue to pull dead/pathetic looking tomato plants, pick seed saving-worthy eggplant and hot peppers, and work on the fall garden of greens, beets and Brussels Sprouts. As to the latter, I am pleased with how vigorously my recently planted seedlings are doing. Not quite so enthusiastic about the health of my beet, chard and spinach transplants, though the arugula and lettuce look good. I also need to see if the row of Fowler bush bean is ready for seed harvest.
Aside from that.....lots of indoor work to be done, including finishing my first book proposal and collaborating with SSE on a few ideas; wrapping up the 2011 NH Dwarf project, sending out seeds to some folks, and preparing for 2012 seedling sales and the 2012 NH Dwarf project phase (really! already!).
A few pet pictures....Sam and Kip, already best friends (sometimes)....and a closer look at each - Kip is the hairy monster, and Sam is the one who looks like grey and white trouble!
