The plants were showing signs that it was time to harvest the potatoes. I cut the tops off before tipping the bucket over and picking out the potatoes. I started with five potatoes that yielded approximately 30 potatoes. After cleaning them up, I cooked them. These vegetables went from garden to table tonight. We made potato parfaits with all the fixings. Delicious!

The potato plants keep growing and growing. They are almost ready to harvest!
The sunflowers were replanted in week 8 after having too much water and rain. They are thriving again! However, there is an animal in my neighbourhood who likes to eat the sunflower and nasturtium plants. I wonder what kind of animal it is?
The beans were also replanted in week 8 but they did not survive. They have been composted and will help the garden grow next year.
