Recycle instead of throwing out your disposable masks.

Only an extremist would can their own food!

Does anyone know the name of this tree/shrub?
Ever since we moved into this house a couple of decades ago, people have asked me what it is.
All I can say is that it's a Japanese "blank". I think.
BTW, it flowers every year in late August, small pink flowers which attracts hundreds of bees.

That's looking at the top third of the tree. Those are grape leaves at the bottom.

I think next year I will tarp up my food garden beds. I feel like I have garden fatigue. With that smoke and heat this year I let things go wild for the most part, and now it is utterly overwhelming me.
I haven't failed until I quit.

I guess thats what it is. Some online pics definitely look like.
So much for it being a Japanese something.

I heard someone in North Glenmore say that had frost. Central Rutland here, no frost (but man, chilly!)

Something new to try next year?

Fragaria Cherryberry Strawberry - The darker the fruits, the sweeter the flavour gets with Strawberry Cherry Berry. As fruits ripen and get sweeter, they turn an intense deep red, verging on purple! Produces in June - July.
