On September 25, here are some pictures I took.

On September 26, I took pictures of the bucket brigade.

I took some raised beds pictures. I tried to show all the dangling eggplants on the large eggplant bush. I was not successful.

Random pictures below. The tomato is a volunteer that came up through a drain hole drilled into the bottom of the 5-gallon bucket.

The weather was lovely.

  3. For a minute, I thought the dangling eggplants were limes. You will have to let us know how they do. Lots of rain in Florida but we are not projected to be one of the counties where the tropical storm-1 or 2 will hit.

    1. I did include pictures of my potted lemon and lime plants with my potted peppers. That may be the plant you are seeing. I should go back and label the pictures. The eggplant is huge, almost 5 feet tall and is next to the Thai peppers.

    1. We keep it going most of the year. Tomatoes and peppers say “Adiós” as well as some other heat loving plants. I’ve got a fall garden planted and I can keep it going with a row cover.

I am a retired software solutions architect. I have been married to my husband, Bruce, for over forty years. We went full-time RVing for 3.5 years and saw much of the United States. After deciding to stop RVing, we bought a ranch house halfway up a hill on five acres. After Bruce and I talked about names for our five acres, we settled on Blackberry Homestead as a homage to the wild blackberries on the hill. We are working on creating our homestead. I love cooking and enjoy sharing recipes. I am also an artist, and I’ll share my current projects. Gardening and reading are my favorite hobbies.
