Sunday afternoon I managed to dig up a small harvest from the partially frozen ground. In the basket is the last of the fall broccoli, a celeriac bulb, Bright Lights chard & Tuscano kale.I am hoping for a little bit of a warm up soon so I can dig the rest of the root crops. There is still lots of parsnips, carrots & celeriac in the ground. Looks like Friday maybe a good day to bring in the last of the unprotected crops. The cold seems to be setting in fast this year.
The harvest may be small, but it still looks very nice. Good looking broccoli!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work. It's almost time for hot chocolate and seed catalogs!
That's a great late season harvest! The brocolli looks particularly YUM! Mine have been done for quite a few weeks now and I am sorely missing them.
ReplyDeleteWow for mostly frozen ground you are doing amazingly! I'll swap you some broccoli for some zucchinis or tomatoes ... :)
ReplyDeleteAny harvest is a good harvest!
ReplyDeleteThat looks great Dan. Nothing to harvest here - it's all under a foot of snow!
ReplyDeleteThat broccoli looks absolutely wonderful! No harvest here this week...Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the snow disappearing so we can get to our carrots, leeks and parsnips. Also hopw the brassicas are Ok under the white stuff.
ReplyDeleteNever thought Ontario was warmer then the east coast.
ReplyDeleteWhat you have looks great and the fact that you have something is fantastic. - Enjoy
Fabulous harvest! Your chard is holding up nicely. Mine gave up a few weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteGreat harvest Dan! You're right, it sure feels like winter is coming early this year.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see how much can be produced all the way into December in northern states. I thought it would have ended sooner. Great harvest!
ReplyDelete-Mary
very nice for you to be getting a nice little harvest in December!
ReplyDeleteThere are times when anything from the garden is a gift. Yummy greens.
ReplyDeletePretty harvest. Our winter has been slow to come, but it is coming this week.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty nice crop for mid December! I have nothing left out there but some carrots that are frozen into the ground.
ReplyDeleteNice harvest, it's good to see some red chard in the winter months.
ReplyDeleteBTW off subject here -- when do you start seeds for spring and fall plantings in your area?
I love that chard with red stems, I am sure it is very decorative in the garden. And very hardy, as it seems.
ReplyDeleteWe are expecting a big temperature drop on Friday and then we are officially in winter.
Look at that lovely bright lights chard. What a stunner!
ReplyDeletered carrots are my absolute fav. Your's look amazing!
