Community Garden Plot 2009 - R.I.P.

On last Friday, the 23rd, I finally managed to put our Community Garden plot to rest. I wish I would've rescued the one viable cabbage head, but it was now smelling rather foul. What remained consisted mostly of the wilted squash, freeze dried sunflowers, the dried strands of pole beans, and the aforementioned cabbages. Some of the edamame bean plants also remained, and had turned a beautiful light bronze colour. There were also two small rows of underdeveloped beets and carrots. I did manage to harvest three viable parsnips though (hidden under the ropy masses of the sunflower "trunks"). I pulled out everything, composting what I could, and turned the earth over to winter for another year.
