Some of our fruit trees have canker! Oh no, this is a fungal infection that kills off the meristematic tissue (cambium) below the bark. Alex, will be going in and cutting those branches off. Don’t put them into your home compost bin, otherwise the canker will spread throughout your garden! City green bins should be okay as the city compost reaches a higher, more sterilizing temperature!

We also transplanted some more lettuce seedlings, hopefully these will get to a good size before winter. We also harvested some chard… remember to twist and pull at the bottom of the leaf to get the whole thing. This will promote more leaf growth at the top of the plant!

Beans, beans, beans, the more you harvest the more you get and this is certainly true for us!

There’s always a bunch of blueberries being harvested, kale, arugula, and lettuce as well.
