Summer Squash Is A Hit

After being mooned by a squash the other day I realized it was an announcement stating that the summer squash was the crop to be dealt with.  It is producing very well and every day that we harvest we pick a large basket of squash.  However, another crop may try and challenge the squash for being the best producer and that is the pickling cucumbers.  We have enough pickling cucumbers that we are going to be making pickles very soon.  We were also lucky enough to get some slicing cucumbers which are delicious.  We did pick our first beet yesterday and hope more will be popping up soon, that is after we plant some more seeds. The first beets that were planted only two took.  We also picked some more grape tomatoes, green peppers and peas.  Every day that we do go down to the orchard we are very happy with our harvest.  Best thing, this is only the beginning!
