...but the season isn't over

there are peas up and running...and while the cucumbers are scaling back, the beans, which have dominated the wall from the start, are still producing like mad...cherry tomatoes continue to ripen in a few spots in the garden and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future...and there is still maize in the garden trying valiantly to produce whole ears...dna is tenacious stuff even when the reproductive function of a plant has been thoroughly hijacked by humans..there are still fall green manures to plant and there is fall planting to do ( garlic and jerusalem artichokes to name two )...lots going on yet...rally the season is year round...it just slows a lot in winter.
