The end of the garden

The weatherman is forecasting freezes into the 20's next week and rain this evening and into next week, so we thought it was a good afternoon for garden cleanup (ewwww)

So, we trimmed the strawberry patch, picked ALL the tomatoes (mostly green) and what was left of the pathetic green pepper plants. Tossed the remains to ed (who is a VERY happy and well fed goat today.


And put the beds to rest with a layer of sawdust . . . waiting for next year.

Next year's plans are for a bigger, fenced garden with the addition of 2-3 more beds, benches and walkways (yeah, rabbit proofing . . now if I just squirrel proof it)
