We had a good haul of green beans, so today we canned them. (This picture was a little too much for the full load. I’ll cook the rest tonight).
And now we’re roasting tomatillos, onions, and jalapenos for salsa (fresh and frozen). Apparently I’ve been letting the tomatillos get overripe (yellow) so we did a mix.
Pics from Friday
Got a pretty good haul of onions and garlic today. That’s prolly about half- the other half is still in the ground. GOOD year for this stuff! Many onions bolted, but the remaining ones are big and beautiful
The garlic in the west bed was best- the middle variety in the south bed was good too- I’m a little disappointed with the ones on the sides (I’ll edit to add variety names)
Also got a couple of dinky novas, raspberries, garlic scapes, and some squash
Oh, and yellow beans!
Looks like something (deer?) helped itself to some green bean and raspberry leaves
Oh, and a couple of tomatillo and one

‘S haul plus some braided garlic
Also fertilized tomatoes and planted some cilantro
Green Beans out our ears. I finally pulled the last of the start onions and garlic, braids coming soon. Still got some berries- and more tomatoes and tomatillos. And carrots and beets
I’m loving the carrot top “pestos” with onions, garlic, whatever green herb (basil, cilantro, oregano) and an acid (red wine vinegar, citrus). P put it on pizzas tonight.

Pulled up the first few onions (the driest) and have them curing in baskets
Same with some of the garlic
The varieties in West E are MASSIVE. All of the things I’ve pulled look healthy (:

Garlic and onions are prolly going to be coming out soon.
