Finishing the garden up.

Sorry I haven’t posted for a month. I figure no one is reading it, so it wasn’t a big deal. 

I am trying to overwinter my pepper plants, so I severely trimmed them back and harvested the very last of the peppers and a stray okra Tuesday. The timing was nearly perfect because it was my weekend and a frost warning was in effect that night. My Arugula and Swiss Chard are under cover and survived so far.

Today should be the last day above 60 degrees for quite a while, so I need to get out and do a bit of yard work. Tonight will drop below freezing again, so the covers have to go back up. Since Persephone Days begin today at my latitude, I will harvest them in the next few days.
