2 caterpillars and 3 grasshoppers. Yesterday it was 7 caterpillars, no grasshoppers. Where are all these insects coming from? You hardly saw any all summer. I guess it's the heat wave--there all coming out for one last hurrah!

Did lots of pruning of dead leaves on the tomato plants. Pulled out two of the smaller tomato plants, which were not in the main garden.

Harvested lots of Roma tomatoes, carrots, arugula, red leaf lettuce, eggplant, bell peppers.

Planted more carrots and arugula. The parsnips and turnips are looking good, as is the kale and pak choi. I only planted one row of each. Last spring I planted two rows each of the kale and pak choi and it was too much.
