Probably won't be much of a harvest this coming week as the weather calls for rain and I am off to Nashville at the end of the week. Before Nashville though, I'll be writing up the the local food festival and reading up on planting garlic and over-wintering leeks and some more general garden stuff. I still have more bush beens, herbs, radishes, some lettuce, a leek, kale and hopefully some walking onions too look forward too before the growing season is completely over!

Nice harvest. That leek looks great. I planted garlic this week. I generally just stick the cloves in the ground about 4 to 6 inches apart.
It looks great Fred, keep up the good work. Any frost yet?
Your leek is a nice size. It's going to be a while before mine are that big. It will be a nice treat for the cold weather though.
I have yet to plant my garlic. My beds are still occupied by other veggies.
That is a gorgeous specimen of a leek. I love them and have skipped growing them two years in a row - it's time I got them back into the growing rotation for 2011.
Wow that is one beautiful leek. I never get them that nice so far up the stem.
Agree with others, what an impressive looking leek! I hope it was tasty!
Thanks for all the comments regarding my Leek everyone! It was as delicious as it looked!
No frost yet TYRA, a little early for frost in these parts, but I would guess are first frost will come in the next 3 weeks or so.
