Garden journal: end of season cleanup

We have had 10" of rain in the past two weeks. Because we have fairly heavy soil, the rain has been the end of our tomatoes. The prior hot weather bolted the lettuce we planted where the onions had been. The rain did wonders for the weeds.

We started clearing the garden yesterday and finished (if one can ever be done weeding) today.

We still have collards, cabbage, carrots and chard...perfect for stews and cooked greens to warm these chilly days.
