Ah, it’s that bittersweet time of year again for our Aspen garden.
One of my favorite things to do in Aspen is to grow and tend to our vegetable garden. Now that it's Fall though, it’s not only time to enjoy the fruits of our spring and summer labor, but it's also time to say goodbye to a treasured summer friend.
The temperatures have finally reached below freezing at
night and early morning in Aspen,
Colorado, and the hours of
sunlight have greatly diminished, so it’s time to put our put our beloved
garden to bed for the winter.
What a great garden it’s been this summer – from the
asparagus to the strawberries to the peas and beans, squash, and finally to the
potatoes, carrots, onions, and tomatoes (Actually, the lettuce and spinach
weren’t so hot this year, but that’s another story).
