Well, now it's fall and the season is winding down around here. That fall lettuce and all of those successions of baby leeks and scallions never had a chance to find their way into the ground with all of the crappy weather around here. So I'm left with some tiny amounts of baby fennel, baby leeks and a 50 foot bed of purple scallions. Well, and a couple hundred (or more) lb. of garlic left to clean and most of my onions yet to sell.
So, ok, plenty of work yet to do.
Plus, I've got a line on a cultivating tractor...might be picking it up next week. And I need to buy that hoop house to get my tomatoes in the ground earlier. And the chicken coop still needs finishing.
On second thought, nothing is winding down anywhere. Hopefully I can get all of this done before next season.

gotta question. I planted swiss char at the beginning of the summer and i have yielded a ton and i have a ton more. does it ever get over-done, or really tough or is it as good now as it was earlier? I noticed some leaves stand straight up and others, seemingly older ones start to droop and turn much darker. still good?
I'm not a chard grower, but my advice is...try it.
