October 27th and Theresa and I decided to close out the gardens. We have everything out except the carrots, Brussels sprouts and peppers. The Swiss chard is prepared for next spring as I cut it short and cover with mulch and with luck it grows again in the spring. This years crop comes from three year old roots.
Our carrots were excellent this year. We plant them close together and only thin them out when they are big enough to eat. We do not wash or cut them but keep them in a cooler in the garage. They usually last until Xmas.
