This is not the first harvest of the year, and there is still more in the pumpkin/gourd patch.
And still, it is kind of a disappointing harvest this year (as is often is). This year the culprit is squash bugs. This came from the garden today. (The regular -sized zucchini and squash are in the background for scale.)
Every day we've been getting some zucchini and squash from the garden. The funny thing is that Matt did plant all kinds of things in the garden. But the squash we have been getting is from volunteer squash plants (not planted by us). (Note: The zucchini and tomatoes in the pictures are not volunteer.)
Matt was get some garden beds ready for more spring planting, and dug up these carrots that apparently overwintered in the garden.
