Sweet corn harvest is over. We ate the last ears on Monday.

Raspberry harvest continues...the main competition being the ants and the
yellowjackets. For some reason, the birds don't go after the raspberries.
(Maybe they were spoiled by all those sweet purple mulberries earlier in
the summer?)

Next year I have to root out the 'unknown' variety of raspberry and replace
it with more 'Polish; -- the 'unknown' may ripen first in the summer, but
ripens too late in the fall to be reliable. 'Polish' is earlier, on better-behaved
canes.
