Our Pumpkin Patch Experiment
In our growing desire to be sustainable, I thought it would be fun to grow our own heirloom pumpkins.
Pumpkins are a lot of work becuase they take so long to mature. And on top of that,
they like to be fed and watered, so to raise our own pumpkins in not really sustainable.
These pumpkins we have grown are some expensive pumpkins!
We planted them at the end of May and they are just now taking off.

that is a life of a gardener, especially a desert gardener
...trial and error.

Now I have to get back to preparing our fall beds
