I have a feeling this going to be an especially good year for your garden hauls. Entries are now open!! Please send your hauls from now through Labor Day weekend. Please let me know what you hauled (if not obvious) and what neighborhood you’re in. Entries should be sent via email to [email protected] with Garden Haul in the subject line. Cheers and thanks!

Thanks to David for sending: “I know your great garden haul is done for the year, but you’ve got to give props for those who grow exotic fruits in the area whose fruit ripens very late (or in the case of the bananas, probably not at all). Here you see an Asian prickly citrus from 10th and N; passion fruit from 11th and N; bananas at 10th and Blagden Alley and pomegranates also at 11th and N.” (more…)
