Harvest Time

The Kids and their Pumpkins . . . err

I mean Darth Vadar, Sock Monkey,

Supergirl, Witchy, and Spa Girl.

They picked the pumpkins out of the Rowley Pumpkin Patch!

Here's the patch just before we harvested the pumpkins.
This year we had about 18 large pumpkins,
and around 40 decorative small to medium pumpkins.



I loved the shape of these decorative pumpkins.

They were actually "volunteers" from some pumpkins that

were thrown into the garden for mulch.

Oops!

We also grew some interesting "seal" shaped potatoes

only one actually turned out to be in the shape of a seal.

Actually thanks to our extremely HARD dirt. The potatoes were very
interesting in shape and size.



These two potatoes were the biggest we've ever seen!

One plant produced only one potato it was so huge!

We also planted:

12 tomato plants

WAY too many BEETS!

carrots

broccolli

cabbage

green onions

white, yellow and purple onions

basil

corn

radishes

watermelon

spaghetti squash

and PEAS

We GREW most of the above,

but we found that we were extremely capable of GROWING tons

of weeds and rocks!
