Today I picked three nice "Celebrity" tomatoes, a meal's worth of green beans, two zucchinis and a very large cucumber that I had missed earlier.

I pulled out all but the front two rows of the bush beans from the spring planting, as they still were not producing enough to bother with. All of today's harvest came from the later planting of leftover seed. I added about 3" of compost to the area and will plant beets and carrots there. It's probably getting too late for them, but this is a trial and error period of learning for me, to see just how late I can extend the garden season. All the bean vines went into the compost.
