Weekend Harvesting

We picked and dug the following items this weekend: butternut squash and Yukon Gold potatoes. The butternut squash, as well as the pumpkins pictured below were planted in my dads BIG garden. He has space to let these vines grow as they need to. There may be more butternut but we won't know for sure until we pick the pumpkins and remove the plants - the weeds in and around these vines are just too thick. The taters and carrots were planted in our garden and boy do they love the rabbit and chicken compost! Tomatoes were also picked in preparation for the next canning session, yum!

Only 5...

25lbs

To be harvested:
Danvers Half Long Carrots

6 to 8 Pumpkins

The end of the season is fast approaching, alas...
