Harvest Time at Go Away Farm

Saturday, Mikki and me finally got to pick the much awaited peaches (three years since planting and babying). We also pulled potatoes, picked Sweet 100 tomatoes, purple hull peas, and some cucumbers. Bounty harvest! There is just something about working in the dirt and watching a crop produce before your eyes. I never cease to be amazed! What beauty. What miracles! 

Me, overweight with my peaches. We culled 373 peaches at the beginning of the season, and then let 30 be eaten by the birds, and picked 37 Saturday to share with friends and family. There are 157 to be picked Wednesday! Three young, small trees. 

Beautiful fruit. Some of the sweetest I've ever tasted, of course. No really!

9lbs of beautiful peaches.

Red potatoes.

We got 57.5 lbs of potatoes off of one short row. 

And then, we got this baby. Looks sort of like a cow's head. 

6.5 lbs of Purple Hull Peas, 11.5 lbs of Sweet 100 Tomatoes

This is not the best photo I've ever taken on my phone, but I wanted to capture the height of the Sweet 100 tomatoe plants. They tower above me. They are huge!
