The melons are done and I have few zucchini, cucumber or pole beans still producing. The tomatoes and peppers will produce till the first frost, but have slowed to a manageable level. Over 150 jars of things have been canned, mostly tomatoes, sauces and salsa. I dont have to pick veggies everyday now. And I am not doing a winter garden.
I really admire those of you who are good at this. There may just come a time when you gardening folks are healthy and fit and those of us who rely on canned goods and can't get any are thin and pale.
I can grow weeds, and even those struggle. It just takes so much "planning"! And, daily attention.
But, I enjoy the photo's and it's good to know that it can be done.
