It is time to start thinking about the Fall garden. We have already made a 2nd planting of cucumber that will hopefully produce right up till the 1st frost. Soon it will be time to plant onions, cabbages, greens of all kinds, carrots and radishes. Maybe even a few potatoes could go in the ground.
Supposedly almost any kind of greens can be used to make sauerkraut. The greens are really prolific enough that the only loss will be a little time and a handful of salt. How do you suppose kale kraut or mustard kraut will taste? There is one way to find out.
It is also a good time to take cuttings and start new plants. Fall planted perennials should be ordered for early September planting. Most of these plants need to get a good start before 1st frost so the roots will continue to grow and acclimate through the cold season. Our special fall planting project this year will be edible cherries.
