Well here I got all interested in useless things like total room remodels and learning how to lay tile… and some folks found my blog! That’s a startlement, let me tell you.
It appears that people have been visiting all of a sudden. Don’t know who of why, but hey, I’m just glad this ol’ thing ain’t dead.
Gotta go put in new bunching onions, brassicae and other winter crops after trucking in the last of the old dirt, but can post this taken 2 days ago: 
Those maters are 6 feet tall, which added to the beds mean they tower 8 feet up. They are also shoving the fencing down… argh. Better fencing next year. The fennel behind them is 10 feet up.
Yeah, I gotta get out there and deal with all that stuff. Most of the zukes have been ripped up, but three are still going strong. Lettuce and winter stuff will go in where the zukes were. That soil is pretty lacking in N, so will be putting in legumes this winter and whacking them down when blossoms are mostly out (that’s when most of the N is available). Also, going to lay down a covercrop of clover as permanent understory.
I love that purple bee balm, and so do the hummingbirds. Maybe I can save seed from that too!
Currently self-seeding: chamomile (like a fiend!), nasturtiums
Fun Fact: looks like we’ll finally be putting the chicken coop in this fall! Yeayyyyy!!!!
