A Fall Garden

There are two things that make me sad about Autumn...1) The blueberry bushes are empty. And, 2) This is the last of the tomato plants. The only reason it's still hanging around is because it's in a pot, so it's not taking up precious garden space....The rest were ripped up and replaced with these beauties...
peas...sugar snaps and two other varieties whose names I've currently forgotten...oops!
And lettuce...yum!
I've also got some kale, spinach, arugula, and swiss chard popping up. Can't wait till it's ready to eat. Have I mentioned that I have a thing for food? ;)

    I wish I had half the green thumb you do! Rocket is my favorite lettuce. So yummy with some olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and freshly grated parmesan!

    How lucky to still have a garden though! There are no autumn or winter gardens in MN!

    Oh good for you with keeping up with planting! I have slacked off, as I usually do by the time fall rolls around. One of these years I'll do better!
