Fresh Salsa tomatoes, Candy onions, Carmen peppers and cilantro got turned into salsa, Sun Golds got sun dried and many ears of Fleet bicolor sweet corn were turned into pounds and pounds of frozen corn. 

We got to the corn just in time:  last night a racoon or possum, we’re not sure which, discovered to sweet corn patch and had helped itself to about 20 ears worth.  I decided to harvest all of the remaining sweet corn and get it ready to go into my belly instead of letting my forest friend pig out on it.

The first Juliet tomatoes were also ready to harvest, meaning that pasta sauce making (the Biondis call it “gravy”) is just around the bend.
