Starting a garden Post #28

![Pumpkins](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23wgMX2efR1FLFX47UQrvSAm7tPegmiocJ8XZon7xbYqzwif5QdKZ9nWaJmxHCQfeVBi2.JPG)

Welcome to my Starting a garden Post #28 🌱 🙂  Fall has arrived in Vermont.


![Frost](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/EoGwtV8oXjcjbdUf455sC48NEmRRPBR91S2LSVCGuLJbK9hFenHeVFuX6xw2kUmGAy9.JPG)

Frost on the grass this morning.

![Pumpkin vines](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23tmFe3XamCaq6ZLGur4t7XZqbfEfs2U3k5WZNeMoFc2oM9BtpNYRzBUu63TYbPa6KW4w.JPG)

As lovely and fall-like as they are on the vine...

![Pumpkins and squash](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/EowHWr26cNB4H9gDQuMSNnim1FBc7UUWpGkcdu17oj9HHHYduTuTd3X2EJ8XE2jGe2Y.JPG)

We brought in the last of the pumpkins and squash.

![Onions and garlic](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23xAXuP4DzkU2tTxvXTf2xidapYG6XmFRK7Pr8qktGZsKsXohdm3fsxDkmBdA7zP43hPM.JPG)

Plus a couple of onions and a garlic.

![Before](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23vhrzRScDSorXrkWCyxGADy1cB1NyK6tkZuHqVysry8dQrA67DvWUyoT1mnvQUtuJrnR.JPG)

Now for the sad task of the day...

![Bed cleared](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/EoEp2x3wKgYU3DHpHAJG849GewFedArzRamhAQrHtGKzduUrf79YBz34M9vdsAqioBY.JPG)

We started clearing more of the beds.  This bed had pumpkins, squash and tomatoes.

![Last tomatoes](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/EoAaEtGKbdb8HJRfbk2Kmd5tppkbdYzirRRJW4G6e24nRC28z59ZDLgcgm5VMwJBvVy.JPG)

Next up - Tomatoes and peppers bed before clearing.

![All but peppers](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/EoEpUjPS7nvfvGcJfBdvqM4R6eBEErdQ2pWxN5rmTwcKqLJbByEbDhfRTKXGDKX6V4s.JPG)

All the tomatoes out.  Only peppers left.

![Moving day](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23uFRTtjSLeJBwwu6TsZLCzjD3fg496QC4HBzRsGJ9UVycScopo75PsdjfFDGQs4D8SzF.JPG)

We decided to try and move some of the peppers indoors for the winter.

![Indoor Peppers](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23vhuD42HPEpfTiz3Wg82YSDPTUM1LqPrn1SvJTSXwYGijLQJFvcZ4xLLvkHVJ9QTXsTS.JPG)

We took one jalapeno pepper, one bell pepper and one sweet pepper.  Not sure about the plan for the winter yet.  But at least they are out of the cold.  

![Root bound tomato pot](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23tbwM9J3HjjUptEfa4AUu5GVg2mWuEVMhWWuNMXaapKUeqKisY7DJWgZK9msnRnMKcSW.JPG)

We also emptied out the tomato pots.  They were all root bound.  A few even put roots out through the bottom of the pot into the ground like this one.  We knew the pots were a bit small but didn't realize they were this cramped 😅

![Green tomatoes](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23tbrtozF32YyMh4Ed1E7UejqCpRgat1y8pe7A7znafK6wjvsLPvroiQYP96YhqLziLNW.JPG)

We saved some of the green tomatoes.  Going to try some green tomato salsa.

![Blueberry mulch](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23u652nSdDPdfnGsGNzStkGWLWbhGC1oqx83wEwrSU6hS3E9dfpeRF4GieXEDi19wLF2n.JPG)

Since we were in winterizing mode, we mulched the blueberries.  They were new this spring so this will be their first winter.

![Raspberries mulch](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23tveP7pJdzPzV3BwsZYJkjyTzv8wFNWjncG55dKyoab1QdEUU17xP8uotgSgRC3kwGKJ.JPG)

Also mulched the rasperries.  

![Before](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23tH5VewXJhm35ZYeVRUh8bwCaG1B84HVUmuSbQ4h2VNjmGUPAQwDqmvmBHYzdt22pqXG.JPG)

Next we moved on to the fruit trees.

![Clean and mulched](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23tmHi4cBLAxWcbRAWxp6EBKbza8yCsc4iGT2GTMfxwVsaL2Eu9pYxZKJkeXQF8g7XqUk.JPG)

We cleaned up the grass around the fence and added fresh mulch.

![Fresh mulch](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/23vsNU5J53kjYYX1xtJTZ7p7XdPm7PYYHrsz563DK9geY36DnZDVPAETK5diLKLmvBkn8.JPG)

The fruit trees all look much better.  Hopefully they will come back gangbusters next year 🤞

![Sunset](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/242Nd1uADansySbUe8cEjov2SiVrQTt8HG2UDesyRoteULYGyKL55tG2o7gh9C9EEKcgs.JPG)

The end of a beautiful day 😃  Nothing as satisfying as a super productive day in the garden.  Have a great week!

Bonus pics:

![Dock out.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/steven-patrick/EqBVWRCAkxXYQBfk8fjVcbvatcAJCm9YipC7MEoBu3JW2KtjV4ufCuyZW1RUPCQZXjm.JPG)

Signs of fall at the lake.  This is the photo of the dock I always take...  dock out, only the boat lift left behind.

And fall colors are starting... more to come 😍

the squash and pumpkin look amazing!
I am curious to see how the peppers overwinter indoors. If you have success, I may try and find a place to over winter mine, this next fall

Nice pumpkins, perfect for Halloween... I also sometimes bring some plants inside, mostly herbs like basil or parsley but never a success... And very cool pictures at the end of the post, the colors are coming.
