Frosty Morning


Winter is finally here. It may be another sign of global climate change because we did not have a frost here until after December 1, 2011. The Farmer's Wife covered things twice.
 
Once not so cold and then a freeze that took out the tomato plants this time.

Today the tomato plants came out and several kilograms of green and starting to turn. They are bundled up in newspaper and in the basement and we may get a few to yet ripen. Last year we had fresh tomatoes this way until early January. To be able to have your own tomatoes for eight months out of the year an achievement.

There was nearly a kilogram of peppers as well.

Finally we all went over to check on the raised bed garden near at church for the vet center and the soup kitchen.


6.225 KG to add today make a total of 235.967KG for the year.
