Tomato trellis and cabbage net installed in the garden

Finally found some time to give the garden some attention. The tomatoes were growing all over the ground and the cabbage were getting eaten up by cabbage moths.

I built some tomato trellis with big sticks from the sugar bush, some wire, and hay string. I don't know if it's going to last the whole season but for now it looks cool.

Used some leftover conduit from another project to bend frames to secure the cabbage net. We have done something different every year to support the nets with varying results. This season I decided to make something I can reuse every year.

10 gallon crock is full of peppers picking.

The vegetable garden hasn't gotten as much attention this year as we normally give it. We basically planted it, got things established and walked away. As you can imagine, most plants didn't do very well but the peppers seemed to be just fine. We picked as many as we could find and put them all whole into the 10 gallon crock to ferment. We still don't have a plan for what we will make once they are pickled but at least they will be preserved in the fridge until we decide what to do. It's a mixture of all sorts of sweet and hot peppers so I'm imagining some sort of relish or hot sauce.

peppers are by far my favorite crop!

Mini fridge jam packed with lacto ferments

Pickles and pickled peppers from this year's garden couldn't fit in our large fridge so we had to plug in this mini fridge to store them. We packed the pickles and peppers into jars we've saved so we can keep the mason jars handy for canning. I knew I would find a reason to reuse those jars for something. Ideally, we will build a walk in cooler soon. There never seems to be enough storage. Pickles on demand all winter!
