Despite the fact that there has been little rain this summer, our garden is very productive. It is amazing that such a small amout of space (compared to what we worked in WV) produces about 3x the food. RXC harvested the shallots the other day and once again the yield was much more than we have managed in the past. We did get several truck loads of cow manure at the start of the season, so perhaps that made the difference. Our tomatoes are very close to being ready and there are masses of fruit on the plants. I think we disappoint the vendors at the market that we regularly bought from last year because we need very little from them.
