Frosty

Today is my area's earliest expected frost date.  Frost may not actually hit yet, but it is a good time to start harvesting the least cold-hardy plants. 

I decided it was a little past time to dig up those sweet potatoes.

The single plant was pulled out first.

The zig-zag one on the bottom of that picture was a 2-pounder!

All together, I had exactly 7 pounds.  I'm not sure if I got them all, but after a while I realized I would kill my parsley and mustard greens if I kept going.

By this time next year, I plan to have cold frames in place over my late-fall crop to extend the season.
