We were again under a freeze warning last night, so I spent my afternoon trying to seal the hoop house, harvesting tomatoes, basil, cabbage, and cutting flowers for some last bouquets of the season. The colors never cease to amaze me, and the kitchen was chaos when I finally called it a day.

It is bittersweet to see the harvest slowly, and now quickly, coming to a close. But really, I’m ready. Ready to settle in for a slower season, ready for all the planning and dreaming that comes with it, for the next year, which comes so fast.
