Found this GIANT radish while cleaning up our victory garden🌱 It had been growing all summer and fall. Not sure how it got SO BIG without going to seed. We're NOT going to taste it because we're sure it's going to taste pretty funky

Hmm, so you CAN grow beets in bunches and without thinning. 🤔Admittedly, we had our doubts! #beet #beetroot #beets

Okay, pretty sure last week was the VERY last summer harvest from out victory garden for @ftndurham : 10 lbs worth of baby butternut squash, yellow zucchini, green zucchini, and eggplant; black cherry tomatoes; and cucumbers 🥒🍒🍆Also pulled off all our remaining tomatoes (37 lbs), green and red 🍅 Mealworm frass worked great for us as an all-natural fertilizer 🐛Please help fight hunger in your community! 😀
