With such a wonderful, wet year, gardens flourished. The 6 cabbages took over almost 1/4 of my 4 x12 garden plot at church. I brought my big knife and got to work on harvest day. 

This year, the plan is to make sauerkraut from most of the cabbage. Fortunately, I brought along a large shopping bag to the garden on harvest day. Each cabbage was big, but the one pictured was the largest–one ounce short of 10 pounds!

I’ll write later to let you know how the sauerkraut turns out.
