Last year we had a lot of squash and onions. And we really didn't have enough room to store them. And we didn't have the ability to effectively store the squash at the the right temperature (about 50-55 degrees). So we are building this insulated space to hopefully serve as our our new squash/onion/garlic storage room(s). Onions and garlic like to be stored colder (mid 30s) so we will have to have seperate rooms for the them and the squash. But it should be a lot better than covering the squash with old quilts at night with a little space heater! Hopefully next week we will have pictures of our progress to share.

This week the choices will be a little less than we'd like. Many of our "summer" crops are done (zucchini, cucumbers, beans) but our "fall" crops (celeriac, butternuts, Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes) are not ready yet. And we know beets and carrots are favorites, too, but we had a couple of beds of both of these that got overrun with weeds. So probably no carrots or beets this week.

Usually we post pretty farm photos here. Well this year we have been unable to harvest 100 percent of all the crops that should be harvested. So we have had some tomatoes, some peppers and some cucumbers that have just ended up rotting on the vine as we run out of daylight hours to finish harvesting and also we really don't have a market for some of these excesses. So we know next year - plant less tomatoes!
