I am a bit swamped this week, as I am prepping for a fair on Saturday and also trying to get things squared around the house for my parents to come meet their granddaughter.

Our tomatoes are pretty much done for the season, and I think I’m going to have to clip and cure some of our pumpkins in the hoophouse rather than leaving them on the vine. This morning a friend let me take a truck bed’s worth of wild elderberry cuttings for the fair and other fall sales, which was super nice of her.

What’s growing on with you all?

    I think posting about your plan would be a good starting point for some conversations and might encourage some other folks to emulate you

    once i actually start doing the work, i definitely will!

    Did they talk to you about solarizing next spring using tarps?

    they did, but this area of the yard is pretty shady, so the guy leading the workshop specifically recommended using cardboard and mulch for maximum annihilation.
