The transition from summer to fall continues here in upstate New York.
Today, some pictures from a local farmer's market.
Summer squash transition into winter squash.
Eggplants (aubergines) transition into onions.
The last of the peaches.
Welcome, cauliflower.
Soon, the bounty of summer will be no more. The loudly chirping crickets declare it, as does the sun which rises later each morning and sets earlier last night. The geese fly overhead.
We will have a brief season of cool weather crops, and then, that will be it until next year.
I can't help but be a little sad.
But summer will end on Friday, regardless of what I think. The rhythm of the seasons will not be denied.
Beautiful pictures. I'm happy about the autumnal harvest. In my CSA share yesterday, I got peppers, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, corn, and a spaghetti squash! I've really enjoyed eating "in season" and in exploring recipes. I'm looking forward to having pie pumpkins to turn into pumpkin bread. In the winter, delicious citrus fruits will come in from other places. I too love summer but I love it even more because I don't have it all of the time.
ReplyDeleteIt will, won't it? It's hard to remember that rhythm of the seasons, here in the tropical land of hot and wet, interspersed with cold and wet. (That latter describes the approximately three days we call "winter" down here.)
ReplyDeleteI should make some zucchini bread, soon!
Summer may end, but then fall begins. And summer will come round again.
ReplyDeleteThose brinjals look awesome... and yes, while the season changes, it would be a chance now to try out new fruits and veggies right? What are the cool weather crops?
