Onion Harvest

I pulled these out of the garden – only a few at a time due to an infestation of fire ants living in my raised bed, square foot planters. I spread them to dry on a trailer that has a nice metal mesh bed perfect for this.

Yesterday my husband cleaned them off with a hose while I was weed whacking. I will finish cleaning them up today, putting them in mesh bags to hang from hooks in our pantry.

I hope that they are nice and sweet.

We’re Rich in Tomatoes!

A couple of days ago we were mourning that we had eaten all our good tomatoes. Look what was ready this morning – with more to be ripe in a day or two!

 

 

 

 

This is half of our onion harvest.

 

I cleaned them up and put them in these two mesh bags. They’re hanging from hooks in our pantry, continuing to dry out. We’ve eaten several, and they’re nice and sweet.

I’ve pulled most of the rest of our plants, with the exception of grape tomatoes, a couple of spaghetti squashes, and lots of celery.
