Things are winding down now, but BeetBear still found veg. to share with the neighbors today. It made our day when a young lady and her grandma stopped by with a thank-you note for us. It's very dry again. We have had no rain since a light shower on 20-Aug. Tomatoes are heavily mulched, so they're ok. Peppers, eggplant and yellow squash seem to be holding up, too.Will probably start to "deconstruct" the corn patch tomorrow. 馃榾

A ten inch tall (25cm), light brown teddy bear in green overalls sits looking directly at the camera. His name is BeetBear. He is holding a beet in his right paw. There is a bunch of beets embroidered on the bib of his overalls. He is sitting on a tote containing about 25 pounds (over 11 kilos) of ripe tomatoes. This is all in a black garden cart with other totes containing yellow squash, zucchini, and eggplant. Messy fern bed in background.

The tomatoes are finally coming in large quantities. Had enough to put out some surplus today. Had a lovely note left in the cart this morning. Did you ever notice that the largest and best tomatoes always grow deep within the support cages and wedged between the cage and a large stem in such a way as it's impossible to extract it without ending up with a handful of mush? Happens here all the time... More corn soon! 馃榾

We topped off a beautiful day here by resuming our corn-fest. Probably enough left of the first planting to get us one more meal. Second planting should be ready in another 2 days or so. I figure we'll get to about 95 or 6 ears from the first planting, if the skunks stay away! Meal also included roast sausage, peppers and cherry tomatoes and more raspberries n' cream. Too full to move..

The tomatoes have started to come through a little better now, although they are smaller than usual (but taste great!). We had a little surplus for the neighbors to set out today. Best thing is that the corn conveyor is still providing for our corn-fest. BeetBear keeps count and has his share and we all enjoy raspberries and whipped cream after dinner!

BeetBear looked a little grumpy this morning as he pushed his wheelbarrow along the side of the veg. patch. He will get another blueberry pie later to make him smile. Still very humid and warm here. Was able to harvest enough to put out another load of free veg. for the neighbors. Stay safe, everyone! 馃榾

BeetBear helped me pick our surplus to put out for the neighbors today. Some of the zucchini was getting to be battleship sized. We offered zucchini, yellow Sunburst squash, and eggplant today. The few cucumbers and tomatoes we kept for our own dinner to go with the home-made coleslaw. Too hot to cook much today. Looks like more storms coming overnight. We could use the rain but not the wind. We'll see...
