Alas, I have not yet planted anything for the fall/winter except for about 200 snap peas and the kale and celery from this spring that appear that they will not mature until the fall. I must get some carrots, lettuce and other hardy greens planted soon or I will miss another opportunity to see how much gardening I can really do in the darkest depths of winter in Buffalo, NY.
We were away for more than a week, but my daughter made sure everything was watered. I was amazed at how much things grew. Apart from a lack of fresh lettuce, the garden is supplying plenty of fresh produce for the kitchen and we are ready for another cutting of basil to make pesto.
