Those are very large cherry tomatoes.

Small sample of our onions. Great color this year.

I cant get Red/Purple onions to grow in my ground for nothing. Potatoes have been difficult as well only red potatoes grow well in my dirt. Nice Onions.

I think / hope mine are doing ok

Roy aka Cudarunner sent me some genuine Walla Walla Sweet onion seeds last year I think we might get some this year,

Glen got a cuke. yaaa

Today we harvested our pepper. That is right, a pepper as in one fruit. Out of six bell and jalapeno plants one stinking little jalapeno that looks more like a serrano.

We try every year and get squat. No more say I.

Tomatoes are coming in! Too many, I might have to make some salsa or something to get rid of them.

Can them,just hot pack them,We used to do 200 gts a year.

Can you please give me info on how to do that? How do you hot pack them? I usually just make salsa or eat them raw.

I dug around in my beds today, but it's still too hot (104 today) to plant any veggies! I am going to plant a fall garden in a few weeks. I wish we could harvest tomatoes at this time of year, but now the plants are long-since withered...

You do not need a presser cooker,just a big pot, canning jars. lids and bands.plenty of info on the net,stuff lasts for yrs,easy to do.
