Still producing

These raspberries this year, most of the old stalks died off and not much for new ones pushed up. But there was a few since early spring. Once or twice a week I could find a handful to pop in my mouth. Now it's the end of August and there are still berries.

The patch on the end of the garden that doesn't get watered stopped producing last spring. Those stalks are six foot high. These are barely knee high.

Watered last night enough to keep the dust down. The one garden I am watering to keep two tomato plants and two egg plants alive. Plus the dormant strawberries

Actually the strawberries are really growing. Putting out new shoots and taking root.I spent some time today weeding them and training them / re-routing them to stay in the garden. I have bricks making a path, plan was to keep the strawberries between the bricks. There are enough shoots now that I could start expanding the strawberry area.

BB was out and picked a bunch of the cherry tomatoes. Enough for a meal. That plant is doing very badly, as is the egg plant next to it. The egg plant is down to just a couple of leaves and one fruit. The squash produced two squash this year. One we picked at six inches, the other at 12 inches. That's it ... two. I don't remember this area being an issue last year. Not sure what happened.

By the looks of my morning glories, I need to put in some 20 foot poles for next year. Once they finally got started they are just one big mass.

State fair starts tomorrow. Can't go and compare my produce to theirs.

Ate the very last of the corn today, it took lots of butter but I knew it was the last so I was going to enjoy it.

Next year ... :)
