the garden october 2nd

today i ate 2 raspberries, Tulameens, and they were the sweetest ever.

the compost area is filled, largely with the mining of Cheryl's yard (next door neighbor who piles it up by the fence and i take it to the compost) and Mikes (ex neighbor who still trucks his yard waste to me and delivers to my compost...it's a total win win)

i spent a great deal of time working on the root flare of the cedar near the fence line....it wasn't too bad but still needed a fair amount of attention.

the tomatoes are still coming on up on the roof deck....very tasty.

the composting toilet and room that contains it in the shed/storage/food preservation/Sunnywood School house should be complete soon...if my son embraces adulthood a bit more than to dabble in it. i'm hopeful.

we await the OK from the county to begin the passive solar enclosed porch...should be green light in a week or two.

finally i am looking forward to the mutsu apple crop again...love that apple....the new one in front has one apple this year. i will be getting a tutoring on pruning from an expert, Walter, in january when he does it. i hope to get a good video series.

oh and finally finally...to note: the squirrels had pretty much finished off the filberts by mid sept so next year better hit it first of sept....
