The final harvest of 2026 and farming is done for the year. I just need to get my little shovel out and do some tillage.
Overall, it was a good year. My first ever excellent carrot crop was had, my chilies and bell peppers were excellent as always, the tomatoes were decent, the string beans would have been better and the beets a total failure due to the evil deer.
Such is the life of an old farmer.


I don’t carrot all.
Okay, that’s a lie. I do care. :)
If you want to make a fine chicken soup or bean soup, you really need to carrot about having some in your soup. And if you wish to turnip the flavor, you need both!
Aromatics are such a critical foundation for flavor, yes! And nice puns peppered throughout your comment. :)
