It's wild that we started tapping maples 6 months ago. I think at the current rate we have enough syrup to get to December, so about as expected.
The first potato bed is harvested, around 20-30lbs. If the others are as good that should get us through the winter. Still getting massive amounts of tomatoes, besides the two gallons of salsa we did yesterday, had to make another gallon of sauce today just to make room.
Hot peppers and bell peppers are probably coming in tomorrow, and any day now the bulk of the apples will drop. Oats failed miserably again, but the other grain experiments and corn and purple beans are all popping. Got a 2ft long butternut squash still green out there and a bunch of bees on the rest of the flowers.
So much is happening! We spent years building soil, and the payoff is totally worth it.
