End of Season

Snow flurries are in the forecast this weekend so I picked the remaining green tomatoes. Look how pretty they are! I was going to hang them up but then I read Root Cellaring: Natural Cold Storage of Fruits and Vegetables by Mike and Nancy Bubel and it said they didn't need to be hung necessarily, so I just went ahead a picked a whole box.

We're working on getting our "root cellar" set up this weekend. I bought 100 pounds of potatoes, 50 pounds of onions and some pumpkins from my local farmer. Plus I have a bunch of apples that need a home down there too. It's very exciting!
