This whole season I have been unhappy with the carrots. They haven't been to happy where they were planted. The greens have been short with little root action going on. I have been dreading pulling them up because I didn't want to be disappointed. I guess that is the key! Saturday I decided to pull them up and see the harvest. I was pleasantly surprised! While definitely a smaller harvest than previous years, it was still more than enough to put away for the winter. Woot!

Saturday afternoon a friend called and said he found a field of corn where we could score a dozen ears for a buck. Not to shabby since the going price this summer has been $4 a dozen! Considering I can not grow corn, this was a great way to stock the freezer. We headed over and picked up 10 dozen. By 10 o'clock that night we had 5 cookie sheets in the freezer and 4 dehydrator trays drying. Ahhh it was a wonderfully productive day!

Awesome score on the corn. I tried all summer to get it for less than $4/dozen and wasn't successful.
What a great deal.. way to go.
