Celebrating the End of a Good Season! »

Time for a winter rest!

November 28, 2011 by whidbeylearningfromtheland

There’s lots of work to do to prepare for winter! The 3-sisters bed was cleaned up, the pumpkins harvested, and cover crops planted.

We had too much fun with the delicious fall-bearing raspberries.

 

Delicious leeks, carrots, and potatoes were harvested.

Garlic was planted, and mulched.

 

Now, time for rest! Let’s hope the tender fava beans, clover and austrian field peas in the cover crop mix make it through the winter. So, as the garden rests, may you also have a rejuvenating and restful season of renewal!
