The first cocktail tomatoes are taking on color and more from the garden

Checking the crops, harvesting and a small visitor

Every now and than I check my cabbages for caterpillars and I have noticed that the white cabbage is finally starting to make small heads.

There are a number of Hokkaido pumpkins turning orange, so soon we can start to harvest them for direct use. If we want to store these they need to ripen completely first. My son is already looking forward to the pumpkin soup I will be making.

Lots and lots and lots of zucchini and also a cucumber.

The cayenne pepper is also doing well. They just need to start turning red.

All in all the garden is doing well. We are harvesting a lot of green beans and freezing most of them for winter. We can also harvest some red beets now and than and the early potatoes are getting dough out. So many beds are getting empty in need of new crops soon.

And this grasshopper paid us a visit.
