The Harvest Rolls In


My harvest from the big garden I worked on.

From Chester in New Mexico -
YOUR CORN HAS BEEN GROWING WELL. I WILL SEND YOU SOME WHEN IT IS READY......... IT HAS BEEN PLANTED WITH ABOUT 150 OTHER PLANTS OF BLUE CORN BUT AS YOU REMEMBER, IT IS ABOUT 2-3 WEEKS BEHIND SCHEDULE. TOO DATE 4 CORNIES HAVE BEEN OBSERVED ON THE PLANT. THEY WERE PLANTED THE OLD NATIVE AMERICAN STYLE.... IN A CLUMP MIXED WITH BEANS.......

WILL KEEP YOU POSTED.......... CHEERS




From Julie here in Lubbock -



Hello Bob,

Yesterday Darin and I pulled the corn and unwrapped beautiful blue kernels. This year was sparce in the garden. As you can see, there was no much of a bounty but what there was is gorgeous. This is my favorite shade of blue.

Please see attached and add to your blog as you see fit. Back to the 'rillo, look out for Darin!

Regards,

Julie
