So first I JUST found a recipe that I like for swiss chard, the night before our first hard freeze, and NOW something is eating them. I suspect deer, although my beds are awfully close to the house for a deer to come that close. But I’m pretty sure they worked on the beans in the outer bed this summer. Or rabbits. Whatever. As you can see, I can still pick some to put in my salad but not enough for a batch of Mollie Katzen’s Pasta recipie.
On the other hand, the Piracicaba blossoms on. I could probably still be picking it if I’d kept up with it.
