garden clean-up

Our gardens were due for a little fall clean-up, but first it was time to harvest some amazing napa cabbage!  These tiny cabbage seeds were planted in July and finally ready to be harvested in the middle of October.  Beautiful and delicious.



We also chose some of the larger beets to dig up.  I was surprised at how many kids said they like beets!


Let the clean up begin!


The big things are fun to pull out, but those little weeds are such a chore!


We composted some of our green bean plants and sunflower stalks.


And we tested the pH level of our soil beds.  They were surprisingly....normal.


This was one giant pile to be composted.  Weeds were in a separate pile.


Now doesn't that look better?
