Well, just a really busy month. More garden harvesting, root crops this time. Carrots, parsnips, beets, turnips. Prepped and planted garlic beds. Picked a truckload of apples at a friend's orchard and, with James' help, pressed something like 10 gallons of cider. James got a third of the apples and cider, and the two of us started about six gallons of cider turning into next year's supply of raw apple cider vinegar. Linc moved the hoophouse to its west position over the beds planted with winter greens, carrots, and beets. He also continued working on firewood cutting, splitting and stacking (that started in June). A elderly neighbor friend had surgery and Jeanne spent a lot of time over there on a daily basis changing dressings, or driving her to various doctor appointments. One of our rental homes had become empty and Linc spent a lot of time cleaning up after the last renters, making repairs, advertising, showing the home, screening applicants, etc. We both got out for bike rides and short hikes and runs on the canal.
A little less than a third of the parsnip harvest.
And maybe two thirds of the carrot bed in this bin.
