Madison Square Up Date

Madison Square Garden is still producing -- last Sunday I harvested potatoes, three beautiful green peppers, the last of the green beans and tomatoes, a stray zucchini or two. Even a handful of raspberries that came in late. It's the 30th, so I guess I should do that this Sunday too.

     We still have a few more potatoes to dig, carrots, radishes, and of course spinach, mustards and cold weather greens. But we're winding down.
     I guess so, it's 29 degrees this early on Sunday morning.
