Picked a small bucket of sweet chilies, eggplant, kale, two or three sorts of lettuce and one lone cucumber. Had a good bit of the pickings in our dinner salad this evening.
Black crowders are making like crazy and the vines have climbed the trellis and I'm now working them in and out. Tomatoes are a bit slow in ripening but that is expected with all the rain and overcast we've been getting.
Figs are getting larger every day and it looks, I hope, to be a good harvest. The pears are about the size of a quarter and looking good. This will be our first pear harvest on that tree if they make it. The coloring now is a russet and we hope they are tasty. Supposedly good for eating out of hand and canning both. Tree looks really healthy but I'm doing my best to keep pruning off the "rain" limbs so the tree stays open to sunlight.
The blueberries aren't doing well at all, will have to do some research to see why they aren't. The "wild" tomatoes that came up this spring are putting on fruit and, today, we ate the first "Indigo" tomato we planted earlier.
