Not a Public Blog

This website is not really for public consumption (although you are welcome to read it). It is really just for friends, family, and neighbors to find out what vegetables we have available to give away.

We have a big garden, and when a plant-type starts producing, they quickly overwhelm us with excess. So, rather than calling people and asking them if they want stuff, I'm putting a list of what we've got, and you can call me if you want any of it. Ask for as much as you can handle, and don't worry about sounding greedy. It'll end up in the garbage if someone doesn't take it off our hands.

This post is stuck to the top. Scroll down to the next post to see what is currently available.

10/10/09

This cool summer/fall has been ideal for growing. If more people don't start coming by to get veggies, I'm going to start leaving them at your doorstep!

- Corn (enough to feed all of China, but only until around 10/17. After that it will not taste good)
- Jalapeno
- Orange Bell/Green Bell pepper
- Tomatoes
- Mustard Greens
- Cucumbers
- Yellow squash
- Radish (red round ones only)
- Kohlrabi
- Green beans, you have to pick them
- Scallions, aka green onions
- Tiny beets

9/22/09 Stuff Available

- Tomatoes - They're tasty, but a bit bug bitten. I sprayed the crap out of them and think I've got the bugs beat. The good ones should start showing up around Oct 1. Until then, we've got a few dozen ugly tomatoes that taste good. DO NOT pick your own tomatoes right now without calling us. They may be covered with pesticide.

- Green beans (pyo)
- Okra
- Cucumbers
- Mustard greens
- Kohlrabi
- Southern peas (pyo)
- Orange bell peppers (pyo)
- Jalapeno peppers (pyo)

Also, feel free to pick the wild tomatillos that are all over the garden. Or, if you're feeling nice, yank the damned things up :).

(pyo=pick your own. These are plants that we don't generally spray, unless you see the sign.)

Fall

-Red and green tomatoes - as many as anyone can use. A few purple ones as well!
-Some kind of weird gourd. You're supposed to be able to make 'loofas' out of them.
-Pink-eye purple-hull peas. You must pick your own. Don't worry, it's fun (ha!)
-English (aka seedless aka burpless aka armenian) cucumbers
-Weeds. Not weed. Weeds. We've got a lot of them.
-Chinese long beans.

AFK For a Week

We're away this week, so you'll have to pick your own vegetables if you want any. Here's what's available:

- squash (just a few)
- cucumbers (those long skinny burpless ones)
- okra (bring scissors or a knife if you want some)
- green tomatoes. Please don't pick these dry. I want some red ones in about a month. Try to leave at least 6 tomatoes per plant. Thanks!
- jalapenos
- yellow and orange bell peppers. I haven't been spraying them, so they are probably bugtastically nasty. They can be found in the weed covered northeast corner of the garden if you are adventurous.

Have a great week!

We're down for a while because this part of the summer is too hot to grow much. But call if you want okra or jalapeno peppers. We'll have lots of them until we get a frost in Nov/Dec.

- Loads of watermelons
- Eggplant
- Jalapeno peppers, yellow bell
- Okra
- Butter beans (you pick, you shell, I relax)
