Oh, hurray a veggie thread for our Northeast Region. Thumbs up I am really into growing veggies this year. Like you Celeste, I have been picking cucumbers but not in such numbers! You sure are having a fantastic harvest of cucumbers.

I have been picking tomatoes and they are my favorite summer veggie. I just love a nice cucumber and tomato salad and a lovely tomato sandwich.

I also am growing zucchini and yellow summer squash for the first time ever this year. Have picked a lot of zucchini! Hilarious! Have had zucchini for lunch most days! Hilarious!

And I am growing eggplant for the first time ever also. After only ever eating the typical large fruited big purple eggplants that you commonly get in the supermarkets, I love the Asian Small fruited varieties I am growing which are all new to me.

I recently started my fall crop of snap peas and I see some just started pushing thru the soil this afternoon.
