In 6A/B here...Most of the veggies are spent - not expecting any more little cukes or peppers. Tomatos were horrible this summer. Lettuces done and bolted. Herbs are still so lush - I'd like to bring in the huge basil and rosemary but transplanting to a large container will likely kill both - and I tend to kill the indoor plants pronto with either not enough light or too much water...We were pretty much "use as you grow" this year. In the past, had lots of tomato sauce and freezer pickled cukes put by for all winter.

Best of luck with your garden, onethatcares; pick and choose your recipes for preserving, freezing, and using in some great dishes. Should you get a really bumper crop, your pantry and freezer will thank you!
