It's that time of year again. It's time to pull up the garden! We had some really great tomato plants this year. Our favorite was the Black Cherry tomatos. This our first year planting them. What a wonderful surprise! The vines were over 20' in diameter and the root systems were almost 1 foot down. Some of them spread to over 5 feet in length! Amazing. We were able to put up 32 quarts of salsa, over 32 quarts of juice, 5 quarts of sauce, and about 12 quarts of stewed red and green tomatos. Wonderful! I am so thankful!
My gardens.... they can look a bit messy when we first pull everything up, but then it starts to look all tidy again.

We still have carrots in the garden. I'll probably can them this coming week. They grew to great proportions also!
Now it's time to decorate with autumn ~ although, I am already planning dimensions for next year's veggie patch...
I love a ; and a =)
