| Beets & carrots - our first beet harvest occurred this week |
 |
| Tomatoes, marigolds & beans |
 |
| Peppers |
Our peas began to wilt and looked unwell. Derrick and I took a sample to our crop pathogen expert, Scott, and he has suggested they have fusarium. Because this has been such a wet year and because of our rich soil, this was likely unavoidable. He suggests rotating the peas and seeding earlier so the plants can get a jump start on the fungus. Dave has since sprayed them out.
