To a long, mild fall

Just two more weeks at the farmer's market, but there remains quite a bit of late crops out in the gardens.  Late broccoli and cauliflower continue to grow, although they would grow faster with a little moisture.  The last plantings of carrots and broccoli are coming on as well.  There is and will be a bumper crop of spinach.  I'm harvesting the last row of potatoes for storage.  The winter squash is in the garage curing before storage.  The last rows of sweet corn will be harvested for market this weekend, since the Divine Mrs. M and I will be on Long Island for niece Emma's wedding.  Still waiting for the Brussels sprouts which were severely damaged by a flea beetle infestation to come around.  The long range forecast is for a wet and mild fall followed by a cold winter.  We'll see, but in the short term, I'm rooting for several more mild weekends for golf and gardening.
