With the start of school upon us, the time spent in the backyard garden has decreased during the weekdays. However, the weekend is still a time to care, tend and pick the garden.
This weekend we canned fig and pepper jellies and jams. The figs are declining, after a month of picking, but we still pick 15-20 every other day.
The peppers are going strong and will produce to the first frost. Hard to believe they'll still be producing until the cooler weather arrives. Right now in the thick of heat and humidity it's hard to believe it will ever be cooler.
