Fall Harvest

Our garden did pretty well this year but our tomatoes did especially well.

 This is one picking off 4 roma tomato plants.  I canned 21 pints and 8 quart jars out of this.  I didn't take a picture but I got 21 pint jars out of one picking off 4 regular tomato plants.  I also made tomato soup a few times and froze a bunch.  The kids were very good to help pick.  Our peas didn't do very well this year but what we did get didn't ever make it into the house because the kids would eat them all as we picked. 



This is a hubard squash that got a little out of control.  It was 2 feet long and just under 2 feet wide in the center.  I cooked a quarter of it one night and that one part lasted us all week.  But it was delicious!  There were a couple of others on the plant but they didn't get near as big.
