First Blueberry Harvest and Two More Zucchinis Picked

Last updated on

Today wasn’t such a busy day after all the rain we received yesterday from what was left of hurricane Arthur.  The entire garden received enough water for at least a few days and this is one less thing that I have to worry about.  The day before this large rainstorm (which was desperately needed) I was able to start the first harvest of blueberry season.

Blueberries are one of my favorite fruits and you can do quite a bit with them with some great recipes.  This first batch was not that big and I probably can’t do much with the amount that I harvested.  The first picking is usually the smallest as well as the last of the season.  In the next couple of weeks more bushes will ripen and I will pick more so that I will be able to use them and enjoy them for as long as possible.

Here are some pictures of the first blueberry harvest that I took only two days ago when I picked them.

I only picked about a pound of blueberries in this first harvest.

I forgot to mention that today I picked two more zucchinis which I am excited to eat in the very near future.  Check them out.
