Garden harvest August 7th 2025. Tomatoes, eggplant and cucumbers
We picked our first lemon pepper today! #Gardening #2025, #Wisconsin just off the shore of #Lake #Michigan. Also eggplant, 3 varieties of tomatoes and 2 other varieties of cucumbers. Most onions already harvested. Waiting on pole beans now. One miniature pumpkin plant, too. #Yardistry
The new greenhouse is nearly complete now. It still needs a door and (eventually) electrical, and then it will sit empty for the next few months... but I'm excited to join a few of my trees in here with a blanket and a book this winter.
