We've thoroughly enjoyed digging up these little nuggets of goodness.They've been the most satisfying thing we've grown because you have no idea what's going on underground, then you stick the fork in, turn the soil over, and out pop all these lovelies. Buried treasure. This is the last of the earlies (which went in a little late), and still have the main crop to go! More potato beds next year
The pumpkins are huge already and make a satisfying dull thud when you tap on them, and are now working on turning a deep reddish orange. They have been trying to take over the entire garden. Next year we'll plant them behind the barn so they can romp away without covering all in their path
Not sure if we'll have enough for wine, but it's a good start and they are gorgeous. We haven't tried them yet, but our neighbor claims they will be sweet eating
And here's the obligatory rustic, tumbling, cornucopia tater shot
