How do you tell that summer is coming to an end? With us, it's the plants. Pumpkins begin to turn orange, the beans are finishing up, carrots need picking - and they are so sweet when pulled from the ground. It's why we don't have a hoop house. We'd miss the magical parts of summer.
It's also when the apples ripen. Bruce carefully cuts them open looking for black seeds which tell him the apples are ready to pick. And they are almost there. Happy fall.
