Saving your own seeds is important to continue on your favorite varieties

Fall/winter lettuces in my greenhouse #ranchodecabo

Jimmy Nardello sweet pepper. Harvest when red. Delicious grilled or sautéed.

Harvested grapes (Himrod). Table-eating seedless grape

1-Harvest shallots when the tops fall down and start to dieback. 2-Then ‘cure’ shallots in dry shady area. 3-once cured (2weeks drying) cut off what’s left of tops and 4-store in a dark place (like where you keep potatoes)

Terrible smoke coming in to Santa Fe from lightening fire close to Tesuque in our mountains. We normally have very clear skies with visibility as far as 150 miles. Now you can’t even see the Sandia mountains 55 miles away. Hard to breathe too

Grape arbor

Love my garden this year. So beautiful.

First 2 pics of male squash blossoms. Second 2 pics of female squash blossoms. Why is this important to know? Male blossoms come first and later female blossoms appear. Notice the baby fruit at the base of the female blossom. I cover my plants to keep squash bugs from getting to my plants but when female blossom appears, it is time to take row cover off plant so bees can pollinate them. And then you handpick any squash bugs off.

Kalibos cabbage ready for harvest

Hops starting to come on.
