Garden & the Alder Trail

Coolish fall day, but mostly sunny. 5 mallards flew out of the south pond when I went down to the garden. Will have to up their cracked corn ration.

The fall/ever-bearing raspberries are coming on, at least in the original raspberry garden patch.

The Akane apples are getting nice color. Wondering if it’s time to taste test them?

Down in the delta garden (by the south pond), I cut all the leaves off of an overgrown kale plant. Now I will have to wash and steam it this evening, Then into the freezer. I also picked some small carrots and zucchini for a salad, with the lettuce that I picked yesterday.

Out by the old greenhouse/outhouse, I cut 3 more flowers for the window sill flower gallery.

Sat under the oldest homestead apple tree and drank a cup of iced coffee (left-over from yesterday, kept in the fridge).

The dogs and I headed out to walk the Vine Maple section of the trail.

Unfortunately, Cucu ran over to the neighbors, who were out with their dogs loose. I could hear them yelling at Cuca to go home, so I called her back and we turned around and did the alder trail.
