Hot Peppers!!

Most of our pepper plants are growing well and now that it is cooling down we are beginning to see some fruit.  The plants grow in the summer but they do not produce fruit while it is really hot.  We have habaƱeros, New Mex, Italian roasters, jalapeƱos, serranos,  and cayenne peppers all growing on the side of the house.   The plum tree is in the  back there.  It survived another summer but the peach tree we had did not.

Fall Garden on the Way

Mark and Lexi are busy getting the garden ready for planting.   The lower garden is full of sweet potatoes.  They took over the garden this summer.  We also have several stalks of corn with 6 ears forming.  I think we will get a dozen ears by the time we are done.
