My green tomatoes are coming on strong turning ripe every few days. I need the tomatoes to make my 50 quarts of tomato sauce so necessary for spaghetti sauce, pizza and soups.

My big beautiful Sapporo cabbages met an untimely demise when my sheep escaped the pasture and dined on a cabbage buffet. I'm not happy - even angry - the Lord will have to fix this.

My first Zestar apple from the little tree I planted a couple of years ago. It's a beauty too! I'm looking forward to many years of solid apple production from this planting.

Bob bought this Chicago Hardy Fig this Spring. He thought since it had Hardy in it's name, he assumed it would grow in Minnesota. It's only good for up to zone 6 and we're zone 3-4. I'm going to enjoy watching him carry a 12-foot tall fig tree into the house every Fall.

In so many comments, people are asking about my 1916 12-gallon Red Wing crock. I'm telling the story of how I got it. It lives in the kitchen and acts like a table holding up plants most of the year. In August, it holds the kraut.

I'm turning my wine cap mushroom harvest into tasty recipes. Here's a cream of mushroom soup and it turned out great!

Another flush of Wine Cap mushrooms to harvest. I'm pleased with how many mushrooms are growing and how many new recipes I get to try out.

A favorite verse for me is Micah 6:8 - He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly,
To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God? This scripture comforts me in my harvest season.

A simple baked potato can be a fun party food. Bake the potatoes and set a variety of toppings like my Texas chili recipe, cheese, onions, sour cream, yogurt, butter and everybody decorate their own.
