Cleaning up the field: beets
It’s the last of the beets, a mix of varieties – Red Ace, Bulls Blood, Chioggia – from different beds, golf ball-sized, cold-sweetened, nice! Leaves, not in the greatest shape, were trimmed, leaving enough stem to avoid bleeding. Around 50 lbs, and that’s it for this year’s beets.
They look good. It’s nice to still have fresh food in November and know there’s more coming.
I love my beets especially Chioggia. Love the term “cold sweetened” because it’s such a late fall and early winter occurrence and they’re just yummier. Thanks for the wonderful image.

They look delicious! Beets have to be one of my favourite vegetables :)

What a great idea!! :) Unfortunately, I haven’t come up with an ad plan or rate card or anything as of yet, but I’ll be sure to let you know as soon as I do.
I miss your Blog Mike but even more I miss your enthusiasm for tiny farming. Hope you are doing well.
Mike

You’re welcome!
