Saturday Farmer’s Market is a new feature I started to showcase, well, gardens! This summer especially, I have really come to enjoy everyone’s garden posts and I selfishly want to see them all, every week! And as you all know, I’m all about the sustainable living! So give me your garden photos, your gardening books you’re reading, even give me pictures of your Farmer’s Market loot from the week! I want it ALL.
Okay, now here is my real post! My poor garden. See?
However, my okra is kicking ass! It just loves this hot weather. I am definitely planting this again next year.
Look who is still hanging around? He’s not going to like it when I go pull all those tomato plants up. My garden will be looking very different next week!
Sometime this week (or maybe even today, if it cools off!) I’m going to pull everything up and plant these. Well, everything but the okra!
As for my farmer’s market haul…I got some corn to freeze for this winter, some squash to fry up with some onions, some mountain apples, and this. This. is. yummy. I give you Garlic Rosemary Bread!!! *drool*
Yes, yes you do want some. It is so yummy! I think it shall be my supper.
Garlic rosemary bread?! YUM!!!! Yeah…I could totally just make a meal out of that…I don't even need a knife or anything…I'll just gnaw away at it whole :p
I'm totally planting okra again next year too. I was so sad to tear down my plant. I really loved it so much. Such a great producer and just such a pretty plant!!
I still can't get over all of the tomatoes you got! And it looks like you're still getting them. Can't wait to see your fall garden! We can't plant spinach here until October…it stays too hot for it here. But I can plant turnips, kohlrabi, carrots and greenbeans soon! Thinking I may do that tomorrow
Late but done! That garlic bread looks good!
Your tomato plants are looking a little spent there, but boy do you have tons of tomatoes!!! Sauce! Salsa! Sauce! Salsa!
Or stew them with some of that okra!
And serve with that bread! Mmmmmm!
Enjoy!
I found a farmer's market all by surprise yesterday! In the heart of the rich part o'town. The prices were reasonable so I snagged a fresh-baked baguette, some locally made honey/sugar body scrub, and a watermelon lemonade. YUM!
