Over the weekend I got back out into the garden after over a week away. There are a lot of weeds everywhere, since it’s been raining daily for the last week or so, with warm temperatures and high humidity. My favourite thing growing in the back yard right now is a white acorn squash. The compost area at the back is overrun with squash plants. Beautiful, but crazy. We are running out of places to throw our yard waste.
I harvested everything you see in this photo from our back yard, with the exception of the yellow zucchini, which came from my community plot. There were other zucchinis, too, but they’re big ones that will be better for baking and stuffing, since they are larger.
My husband and I have decided to give vegetarianism a whole-hearted try, so we’re very happy to have such a bounty of fresh, organic food to harvest from the back yard and community plots.

Everything looks so good. I truly wish I had the room for a garden. My backyard is just tiny.
Fresh is best.
