Snow Season Starts Afresh.

Yesterday morning, we de-fenced and cleaned up our collective community garden.

In in my plot, I'd been harvesting broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and summer-planted green beans every few days right up until yesterday's 9am meetup deadline, and got there early to uproot the living plants and stuff them into a big brown yard waste bag to be put out Tuesday as trash...

Last night, we got the killer frost.
Late, as we're usually due in mid-September.

Today, a bit of heavy wet flakes in the afternoon to cover the frozen windshields... Down to 28 degrees

The porch is filled with carrots, sage, celery, stalks of sprouts, green beans and potatoes. The garlic and onions are upstairs; the tomato sauce is in the pot...

You get the idea: a warm, indoors, food-scented day, with the outdoors bringing-it-in garden work done for the year...
Boom -- the seasons change overnight.

Make it a great week, you too.
