The time has finally come to start the process of putting the garden to rest. The last two months have presented some unique challenges from pest pressure to a lack or rain, and general burnout as we try to get every task done. This time of year is incredibly busy since seed picking in the prairie tends to take priority. Luckily, the end is in sight and we are feeling particularly inspired by all of the great memories and progress we made this year!

Our first taste of frost arrived and it is bittersweet. It immediately knocked out our squash and pumpkin vines and stopped them in their tracks. Another freeze is on its way, which means sadly we will not have any winter squash to share this year. We really appreciate all of you that made it out to celebrate with us at our harvest bonfire. You guys bought up all of the pumpkins that were ready and we had a blast snacking, laughing, and enjoying the beautiful weather. Thankfully we still have some sweet potatoes for the final box, but the end is near friends.
