Mid-October Harvest Still Bringing Peppers, Beans and Eggplants

A gardener reports harvesting peppers, beans, and eggplants well into mid-October, with frost expected later in the week likely ending the beans while peppers and eggplants can be protected with covers. They are also deciding which plants to bring indoors to overwinter and note fall mushrooms are thriving in the garden.
Why now: Gardeners are comparing notes on an unusually long growing season and preparing for the first frost of fall.
Evidence
- Mid October and we’re still getting peppers, beans, and eggplants. The beans are probably done for with a frost later this week but the eggplant and peppers can be covered. Gotta pick who gets to over winter inside soon. Fall mushrooms are going strong. # gardening · MCDuncanLab@mstdn.social · 26
