Grow

Did not get the beet seeds in before I left, hope to today Tomatoes are coming on fast Time to harvest the brussels sprouts - no really this time Fall garden transition Baby ducks are ready to integrate when we are ready to integrate them No egg season is here (Typical timing for ducks) Need a “hard” harvest today There was a peach and we did not know it
