Madeleine and I checked on the Farm today, and things are starting to look grim. There's been some frost, if not outright freezing, so the remaining beans and peas are starting to brown. In this photo Maddy enjoys the last good sugar snap pea of the fall planting.
We also harvested some Rainbow Chard to make yummy Braised Fall Greens with Fontina Sandwiches. Besides that, all the apples are done (having been frozen and split open), the rhubarb has died back, and the dahlias are on their last flowers.
We'll still have to get up there to put the asparagus to bed, harvest the sunchoke bulbs, and weed the overwintering beds (chard, leeks, sweet onions).
