The final harvest of 2026 and farming is done for the year. I just need to get my little shovel out and do some tillage.
Overall, it was a good year. My first ever excellent carrot crop was had, my chilies and bell peppers were excellent as always, the tomatoes were decent, the string beans would have been better and the beets a total failure due to the evil deer.
Such is the life of an old farmer.
Nice! Those look wonderful.
We lost a huge amount to what was basically 2 months straight of rain with only a couple of cases where we had more than 24 hours without it. Everything was a swamp. I'm still getting jalapenos and hopefully will have some more butternut squash mature. We have a couple of mini kabocha that may or may not mature in time. If we're lucky, we might have some potatoes hiding out there, but not many. Everything else is already harvested or rotted.
