I love fall gardening! We
had salad from the garden for dinner this evening.
Nice variety of lettuce
mixed with arugula and
a few lingering Sun Sugar tomatoes from my dad's plant.
Topped off with goat cheese and a lime infused olive oil balsalmic vinegar dressing.
Additional lettuce and
arugula are up in the raised beds as well as beets and spinach. They will be
covered with a fabric tunnel when the temperature drops. More spinach is up in
the cold frame. I also planted carrots in the cold frame, but it may have been
too late so there is a good chance they will not grow.
I am inspired with Eliot Coleman of Four Season Farm and author of Four-Season Harvest book. He gardens in Maine and has fresh greens all winter. And that is without supplementary heat!
