There is a large crop of pears ready to be picked. Pears are picked greens and ripen best off the tree.
Cantaloupe melons are still green, but they can’t be too far from ripe.
Delicata squash is ready this week. This squash can be stored like a winter squash but the the skin is tender and can be eaten. The taste is sweet like a winter squash. I cut it in spears coat it with olive oil and roast it on the grill.
