Just a quick Harvest Monday post for today. We were away for the whole week at the lakeside preserve we love to go to...second time this year.
Only one first harvest was recorded: fall raspberries!

On Monday, the day we left, we did a general harvest. We took a lot of this for our meals for the week.

And on Sunday, the day we returned, we had catching up to do!

Even though it's high gardening season, it's nice to get away from the chores and just paddle around a lake, in a canoe, kayak, paddleboard, or (my favorite), a plain old floatee. We love listening to the haunting cries of the loons.
That's all for this week. On Friday, the start of the Labor Day weekend here in the US, we will once again be travelling to Vermont for the Garlic Festival, where I like to buy my seed garlic directly from the growers. It will be fun! Thanks for reading, and thanks again to Dave at HappyAcres.blog for hosting Harvest Monday.
Oh fall raspberries! I'm headed to Massachusetts in mid-September. Hope to find some. It is good to take a summer break and forget about the garden.
ReplyDeleteI's great you were able to get away for a while. It's always hard for me to leave in summer time when the garden is going strong.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh so jealous of all you able to grow berries easily! And raspberries are my favorite but they are hard to grow here in the desert. Lovely harvest. My eggplants are coming on good too.
