Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!

It’s official.

The end of the garden has arrived.

Basil harvest with extra greens!

Yesterday we had a little break in the rain, so I harvested the last of our basil and finally made up some pesto!

I found some good-looking red potatoes in my flower bed too, so that was a nice surprise.

Soon I’ll be doing some canning of our bounty (the potatoes). I’m content with a smaller harvest since it’s just the two of us now.

Here are some of the leaves from yesterday’s walk. While our color is mostly golden, I still love this time of the year!

Have a great day!
