Yesterday, I did some much needed maintenance on the garden frames and harvested most of the beets and carrots. I also harvested all of the remaining basil (about 10 cups destemmed and lightly packed) and made some pesto (about 5 half-pint jars). After a cold and rainy weekend, the tomatoes and pepper plants decided that they had had enough and shriveled up and turned brown. There is still a lot of kale remaining to be harvested and the garden frame that was planted with lettuce and kale mid-August may be ready in a couple of weeks if I place some plastic over it to retain heat. The Braeburn apples should be ready in a week or so.
