Cucumbers don’t always do good, but this year the harvest has been great because of the heavy rainfall.
Bigger is Better
I have been growing a lot of jalapenos this year. This jalapeno variety is larger than the common type.
Pinocchio
The Indigo Rose Tomato is a unique tomato. They suppose to be very nutritious, but sometimes they appear to be telling a lie.
Eggplant Feast
The different varieties of Eggplant grown this year have produced a lot. I will dry a lot of these and add them to food.

Pinto Bean is an easy dry bean to grow. A little added benefit is the color of the bean pods.
Spiral Carrot
I dug up the carrots and found this unusual carrot.
