No, Ed's not confused. In Canada Thanksgiving is this weekend, we're having company on Sunday for a turkey feast. But first there's still work to do in the garden.
This is Ben. He's a bit tired from all of the work, it's ok though-he earned 35 cents.
The geese have mostly all flown south for the winter.
I'm still hanging my laundry out to dry despite the low temperatures.
Pretty much just carrots left.
This spinach l planted last month will likely get snowed on before it produces anything.
The zucchini has been killed off by frost.
I won't be planting these silly carrots again. They could have been a different variety and kept growing down but no, they had to be a ball for some reason.
An old door screen works great for hosing off the dirt.
To the compost pile with a 5 gallon pail of tops.
The biggest one! I thought about doing another size comparison post with this one, but I'm not ready to do nsfw...
And fresh baby food. Melody turns 6 months old today!
Now off to make pumpkin pancakes for supper!
Is anyone else still growing anything out there?
Any interest in seeing the freaks of my garden or pumpkin pancakes?
Happy Thanksgiving from @edthecanadian 🇨🇦

what a fantastic post my friend @edthecanadian your garden looks like mine at the moment. Love the carrots. Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving! Turkey Feast? Yeah! Here (Nicaragua) no turkey. way too expensive! Almost $150 for a frozen imported bird! We are having BBQ ribs instead...
BBQ sounds good to me! Have a wonderfull meal ceci.
Holy crap that is expensive for a turkey. 🦃 Do you know why? Just not common or some other reason?
They import them from Butterball in the US. Not only do we get hit with the transportation, we also get charged duty and taxes...
Thanks for the reply. I find this interesting. Why is no one raising them locally? Are they just such a specialty item that there is no demand for them?
No one is raising them here. I am waiting for papers that will allow me to either import eggs for hatching or live chicks. I think there would be a demand if they weren't so outrageously expensive. Ours would be better, not frozen and organically raised.
I'm glad you are at least looking into it. Seems like it might be an opportunity if everything pans out with the government.
Happy thanksgiving Ed!!
I hope you have a lovely weekend jamisa ☺
I like them geese!
Happy thanksgiving
Thanks man, have a great weekend!
I think the small carrots are oxheart. We grow them in Arkansas based on rocky soil. They are the sweetest carrot I have ever grown. In our climate we can keep them in most of the winter provided you are willing to cover them with plastic a few times. Looking good and thanks for sharing!
Nice looking veggies!
Nice haul man, looks like your quite the impressive gardener. I'll be watching for tips.
Well, it looks like your carrots turned out alright, at least the ones that didn't turn into balls. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family.
Wow! I have never seen ball carrots before!
Yeah, that's why I bought the seeds a few years ago. I'm pretty sure this was the end of them. Thanks for stopping in.
Autumn also blessing give us.

Happy Thanksgiving, Ed. Good looking crop of carrots. Here at 45.5 deg. N. in Northern Lower MI, I still have some root crops to dig.... carrots, beets and turnips. The turnips mostly go to the cows...
Yeah, us people can only handle so much turnip. See you around!
Wow, this update was very cool!
I host a gardening weekly contest (#greenestthumb): feel free to share some of your success stories, if you want!
I'll look into that. Thanks for checking out my blog.
Too cold for me in your area. However, you sure can grow som carrots. Much better than this southern region. Great baby food. 🐓🐓
It just snowed here for a couple of minutes! Thanks for stopping by, hope you're having a great weekend
Hot and humid here. Great weekend. Many thanks. 🐓🐓

STOPNice post! I liked the idea of using an old screen for rinsing and definitely would like to see the garden freaks!
Those ball shaped carrots are ridiculous. I've seen packets of seeds for them before and always decided against trying them because of the wasted space. Plus imagine trying to peel them!
Thanks for stopping in. Maybe during the winter I'll chuck some freak photos up.
Also I checked out you blog and I'm going to follow along on your adventures.

Happy Day!
