Potato

This morning the weather is sunny and warm with dry air and temperature in the 70's, a remarkably nice day in fact . Warm enough that my Tumbling Tom tomatoes are turning pinkish. I'm totally excited, I was originally planning to pick them green and let them ripen in-doors.

I've worked my way through the second big compost bin and made about 3 cubic feet of compost. It's enough to use to prepare my potato bed whilst waiting for potato seeds to arrive, the ones that ordered from Peaceful Valley farm. This is a picture of the pile of what was left of the compost.

Dianthus and Stock plants are flowing and have buds

A cucumber for Thanksgiving dinner?
