The garden season is almost done, but not quite yet!

Today, I picked a nice big handful of kale from the garden.  I know the temperature and the conditions (10 and blizzard), but we needed fresh kale for our non-pasta Wedding Soup.  It was frozen and I'm sure some of the snow made it into the soup pot, but I am certainly into season extenders.

We will most likely have another 2 or 3 meals and then, after the first of the year, it will be done.

Be safe and be warm.

This is getting very close to the end of the garden....

Today we picked what I think will be our next to last kale.  Yes, the weather has been in the very low teens for the better part of 12 days but the produce was great.  All of the kale went into kale chips and was safely in the dehydrator within 30 minutes of picking.  I have to say, the outcome (finished kale chips) is certainly something to wait for.

We'll watch the weather but I expect the last picking will be in the next week or so.  If the weather stays above 10, we should be OK.

Hanging on for that late, late unprotected harvest.
