Harvest...

 This time of year is always busy.  I'm harvesting herbs, vegetables, sweet grass, and seeds.  

I went a little overboard with the basil.  I planted sweet basil, lemon basil, lime basil, licorice basil.  I also had rosemary, chives, parsley, and oregano.  Right now they are drying.  

I took my vegetables cut them up, drizzled with olive oil, sprinkled with garlic granuals, salt, pepper, onion powder, and (of course) chopped basil.

I got 13 sweetgrass braids this year.  They smell so fresh.  Already I have two in our bedroom window.  I also gathered seeds from my cosmos, calendula, marigolds, petunias, delphiniums, gaillardia, black-eyed Susans, and bellflowers.

This is my Mexican sour gerkin cucumbers and Minnesota midget melon.  They said the melon was one serving.  I guess so.

I couldn't get enough of the bees in the hollyhocks.  Sorry if I went overboard.  I just couldn't help myself.

This is the very last of my peaches and cream hollyhock.  It bloomed fabulously right up to the bitter end.

If you remember we had a ton of tadpoles in our pond.  Well, now we have frogs everywhere.  Luckily we haven't had to mow.  I don't know how we could miss them all.  The one above is a normal frog and the one below is a tree frog.  I was trying to get a picture of them together, but that wasn't going to happen.  If you have ever herded frogs, you know what I'm talking about.

A plethora of activities this week and more to come.  Archery deer season begins on Tuesday.  A majority of my tomatoes are on the brink of ripening.  

What are you harvesting?  Seeds? Vegetables? Herbs?  What do you look forward to harvesting the most?
