Planted 5 potatoes cut in half and got like 30 potatoes back. Was afraid they rotted in may when we got like 15inches of rain in one week. But they seem to have turned out fine. Also got our last 5 onions.

Also picked about 10lbs of tomatoes.

Didnt have time to pick peppers and green beans yet. Probably do that today.

I wish! Living on mars slowly starving to death sounds better than living in Ohio.

Grocery stores hate this one weird trick.

Congrats! I love harvesting potatoes it's such a fun treasure hunt.

You're lucky you don't have to contend with ground critters!

Also, is that green bean plant just from this season??? That's impressive.

It's two plants on a trellis, but yeah I planted it this spring.

I do have a groundhog fucking up my brassicas

My god... the groundhog are a fuckin menace this year. I've politely asked two to fuck off already, and a third has apparently moved in and wrecked up the place.
