Winter 2011-2012
































Well, the growing season's over. 40 lbs. of onions this year and the garlic is in the ground. Some of the turnips and beets left over from the summer are the size of volleyballs! The kale and lettuce are nestled into the straw and under the row cover. The harvest was abundant this year with about 200 lbs. of potatoes, 100 lbs. of sweet potatoes, and over 100 lbs. of winter squash. These are all stored safely in the Dannys' basement. Firewood is stacked and both of our freezers are filled with pork...all set for winter. Just made a couple of gallons of spicy kraut...Welcome home Melissa!
