2023 Garden Recap, Most Crops Finished for the Year

Most of the 2023 garden has finished producing for the year. I was able to cut the last harvestable lettuce leaves a few days ago. I am still harvesting carrots, but those should be finishing up in another two weeks or so. Low temperatures in the Indianapolis area reached the upper teens on November 28 and 29th, which effectively ended the 2023 growing season. Right up to that time I was harvesting the last of the brussels sprouts, cabbage and kohlrabi. Even though it is late December, I am still enjoying the cabbage and kohlrabi as they tend to keep for a long time in the refrigerator. I snapped a few pictures of some of the mid November harvest below. Overall, I was very pleased with the production of the 2023 garden and am looking forward to a hopefully very productive 2024 garden. This January, I will be going through all of my seed inventory and making my seed order for the 2024 gardening season. Here is wishing all of you a very happy and productive 2024.
