Remember how I said the garden wasn't very successful this year? Well, here's some evidence.
I planted three potato hills. This was the first harvest:

The great potato harvest |
Fortunately the other two hills, which I let go nearly a month longer, yielded a few more potatoes. I got enough to make lunch for us any way. And they were delicious!
The tomato plants finally started really producing as we got some hot weather in September. And I harvested those two wee watermelon.

Both were roughly this size |
Fortunately the watermelon were actually really yummy. Much more like the watermelon I remember from my youth - sweet, juicy, and chock full of seeds.

We also had some volunteer sunflowers. Love the design of the seed ring.
