this weeks pick

it is october and the heat is finally subsiding although you wouldn't know it this week.  we had temps up in the mid-high 80's.  we also got some rain today, we have gone about 4 weeks without a drop so this is a much needed change.  despite the fact that it is october, our garden is still producing, small amounts, but we are still picking peppers and tomatoes.
if you leave banana peppers on the bush long enough, they get a nice red color
mizuna on top, italienischer in the middle and garden cress on the bottom
we are once again attempting to over winter greens
this will probably be the end of the tomatoes, even so, the big beef is hanging on
not bad for october
the tomatoes are cherokee purple, ananas noire, mortgage lifter and big beef
red banana peppers and yellow ones too
pak choi and assorted greens
