Despite the bad drought year, we still ended up with good garden crops. We decided to pull out all the squash/pumpkins last night. The kids had a great time. There were 2 loads taken out!
Everything was divided out by type and then we made piles for the different families that would get care packages. We tossed back and forth heavily the idea of letting the kids sell the extra, but instead decided on donating them. With rising prices seems like many families are struggling and this gives a great lesson also to the kids. Current price on squash up here is at 88 cents/lb. some of those larger varieties can weigh in at around 30-35 lbs
Are you planting any bulbs? I have not ordered any yet. I am starting to ponder on a few items though, pink and black peony tulips.. I think that would be a lovely mix.
Hope all is going well in your neck of the woods!
