We visited our South Georgia relatives for Thanksgiving and returned home with two bushels of Satsumas from the family farm. Of course, what did we do with them? make Satsuma Jelly.......and Minted Satsuma Bites. Just in time for Christmas gifts and holiday cooking.
Check out the pics below.
It seems as if we've transitioned from nice warm weather to the 30's and 50's. Not the optimum conditions for plants we have been nurturing since April but fine for the collards, broccoli, mustard and turnips. We love walking through the Backyard Garden and harvesting what's ready to eat, like the turnips below.
Backyard Garden Creations is also going strong with holiday gift giving. Let us know if we can help you with that unique Christmas gift. We are here for you!
Saturday was harvest time before the first frost of the season arrived. We picked a half bushel of kiwi and all varieties of peppers. We also move our bucket peppers which are still producing, into the greenhouse.

Market season ended this past Saturday with the Deer Festival in Monticello. While the weather was chilly, the customers turned out in droves. It was wonderful to see everyone who came to stock up for the winter months. Many thanks to our Monticello Friends and especially Mandy and Brandi who did a great job organizing 3000 visitors
Of course, the end of market season brings the beginning of our Holiday season. Our jams and jellies are great for stocking stuffers and gifts for neighbors and friends.
Check out what's available and email me if we can help you stuff the stockings or feed your guests!
Eat Local- Garden to table.
