<p>We were able to get everything situated and 17 families including our own and the local VFW will benefit from this years crop. All in All not bad. Some things were picked at an earlier stage, but I'll just cut up, cook, and make a soup. </p>

<p>Time to start wrapping things up.. and getting the dirt worked for next year.</p>
<p> This years squash bugs were horrid, worse than any other year we've experienced. I'm glad we planted our seeds early enough for the plants to get a head start, otherwise I fear this would have not been such a good turnout. </p>
