July harvest

We are harvesting:

  • Garlic
  • Fingerlings
  • Fava beans
  • Peas
  • Blueberries

It all takes some work. The garlic needs to be cured, the fingerlings dug and soil sifted, the fava beans shelled, blanched, released from their waxy coat, and frozen. The peas shelled.

I pick over the blueberries to clean them a bit then freeze them in a single layer on a tray. When frozen, we transfer them to a freezer bag. We pick blueberries every morning. This morning, hit a record of forty ounces.

Making room in the garden for a fall planting, which should be done – now!
