What a wonderful day.
Now if I could just clone today's weather!
The garden is still providing overwhelming amounts of tomatoes, zucchini, beans, onions, leeks, eggplant, tomatillos, herbs, and all sorts of peppers!
The grapes are still hanging thick from their trellis and the blackberries are still turning black. The raspberries are between crops now and the figs are just finishing up. The black elderberries are still hanging from their limbs and the rosehips are turning orange and red on many different plants.
Yet, with all this bounty, it is weighing on my mind that I have not started fall veggie seeds yet.
What should I grow this fall?
Well, of course, lettuce, spinach, green onions, swiss chard, potatoes and broccoli. Oh, and I must not forget peas. In fact I have one plant that volunteered about 2-3 weeks ago. Fresh raw peas from the garden are a delicacy that everyone should experience.

It is late I know, but I have a lot of sweet potato starts with a nice set of roots which will go into the garden this week. Yes, it is late, but if they don't develop fully in a few months, then they will be ready in early spring.
Then I am thinking about growing brussels sprouts again.
Oh, the choices are many!
In the ornamental arena, I am including more native plants into my landscape. Native plants strengthen and build diverse beneficials in the garden.
This is all part of sustainable gardening.
