Time for an October HARVEST! Peppers, Winter Squash, & Cherry Tomatoes! Red Roselle Hibiscus, Too!

Peppers & Cherry Tomatoes, Winter & Summer Squash - Delicata, Butternut, Long Island Cheese Squash, even Zucchini still! Join me for a fun, relaxing harvest! I discuss how to tell when your winter squash is ripe and when to leave it on the vine a while longer, and you'll get a close-up look at just how huge Armenian Cucumbers can get! (My chickens LOVE them!)

Usually, I harvest my veggies a little every few days, as I need them and as they ripen. However, since I'm going out of town later this week, I decided to take as much off the plants as possible, so my daughter will have less to worry about while I'm gone.

In this video, I also share how my Red Roselle Hibiscus are doing. The link to my Red Roselle Hibiscus video is listed below as well as within the video - how to use Roselle for Tea! Also listed below is a video featuring Red Roselle Scones and Jam!
