Fall
Today's photos were taken on Ocetober
10, 2004 and, as you can see, leaves were beginning to change here in Holyrood.
By that time, I had all my vegetables out of the ground.
This year was the same, but because of
the very poor weather in June and July, my crop of potatoes was a disappointment
because they were very small. However, last year I visited a farmer's market
and they were selling small potatoes at a premium price - $3.00 for
approximately 15 small potatoes. I explained that I usually throw small
potatoes away and the lady looked at me as if I were crazy because she said
people were willing to pay more for those. They
are too small to peel, but are excellent for roast potato recipes!
Birch are among the first trees to
change colour around here and the bright yellow leaves are beautiful! The
northern wild raisin leaves were a bright red and the maples were just beginning
to change colour that year.
Feel free to share with family and friends.
