random harvest

we are sad to announce that, due to the lack of rain, we will only have one baby pumpkin this year. several others died on the vine. it seemed the more i watered them, the more they simply withered away.

we've had several volunteer gourds pop up, courtesy of the kittaka family, who gave us a dozen or so last halloween. we didn't plant the gourd seeds; they just seemed to make their way into the ground and then sprouted on their own.


a small crop this year. unfortunately, we can't all be like pete proper...can we phyllis? (hi pete!)
