The sisters in October. Some of the beans are still flowering and we’ve harvested another squash. The garden is winding down for the winter. Most of the seeds have been dried and stored for next year.

I love the splash of color. Red beans! I’m letting them dry out on the plants and then harvesting the seeds. Hope that works.
