community garden update

the gourds
(watermelon, canary melon, cantaloupe, pumpkin, acorn, spaghetti and kabocha squash, and cucumber)

spaghetti squash?

not sure what these are - any guesses?


sunflower


below shows the garden less than three weeks ago! 


my thumb there shows how thick the sunflower stems have gotten.

those zucchinis were used to make "crab" cakes.

the gourds will soon take over the surrounding plots if i don't trim them. i'm very grateful for the fruitful season we've had thus far.


my thoughts and prayers go out to those afflicted with terrible weather conditions, especially those losing their homes and harvests to floods.

  7. Wow, your garden's looking amazing! I'm impressed. I'm so rubbish when it comes to gardening. I'm amazed I've still got 3 house plants that aren't dead! x
