I had to pull out the last of the pea plants to be able to finally get in my acorn squash (nothing like last minute). There still were a handful of pea pods to harvest; but I was running out of time to get the squash in.
The black chick peas are ripening! There certainly aren't enough to be called a "crop" but I should get one dish or batch of purple humous out of them.

Little bean pods are visible in the center if you look closely. |
Next year I know I should concentrate more on a single crop at a time, but this year has been a fun experiment so far in what will grow under these conditions.
