Weeded and pulled back mulch from the the onions. These are remaining thick neck for storage. Need to uncover them so they don't rot. A few are still upright and growing but they have until next weekend. Then I'm pulling them along with the volunteer tomatoes and planting brussel sprouts and cabbages. Probably a 5 gallon bucket full of ripe volunteer tomatoes.
Mess I sweeped up from thin neck onions. I'll have to count up what my wife processed from the 10 braids, it was a lot.

Wife started on one side of the Roma row I started on the other side. We met in the middle. She was in-between the slicer and Roma row, I was outside the Roma row.
She picked a few "beautiful" slicers also.
When we met in the middle our cart was full. I say we picked 1/2 the Roma row. Probably about the same amount to finish the Roma row.
Yah, Mule! (Me) she followed behind with a bucket to pick up the ones that fell out of the cart.
This should keep her busy for a while.

Pretty sight, right around 3 1/2 bushels. First picking, the entire row should yield around 6 bushel

watered everything, soaked it all down good. got done just in time for brunch and was stretching out here resting up and frogging around on the computer and one of my brother's stopped in for a few minutes - always good to see him and it makes Momma happy too.

Eating and canning the garden this year is a family and neighborhood effort. Simply amazing what a 50 x 100 foot garden can produce.
Neighbor came yesterday evening to pick tomatoes.
Neighbor came after church for the last of the small heads of cabbages.
Ladies picked some peppers after church today. I think this is the second picking
Favorite daughter in law is out there picking zucchini and summer squash now. I heard her say someone she knows wants some zucchini and summer squash. She came out of the squash patch all dirty. I said you look like a farm girl, I like it
Animals, got a lot also.
IDK... It's only the beginning of August the gaden really isn't into full swing yet. I keep giving it away and Almighty keeps sending more. Thank You Almighty
