Happy Halloween!

I made this jack-o-lantern from my first pumpkin from the garden!

This is the last post of the gardening season. I dismantled my garden box and pulled out the plants. I will be back next spring, I may post a few seasonal photos of the park during the winter... keeping an eye on the spring flooding!

See you in the Spring!

bonanza!

Isn't this great?! I harvested 4 of my pumpkins, I thought I should do it before they are stolen! One of my pumpkins was half eaten on the vine, so I threw it into the compost, but I did find two more green ones...so hopefully they will survive. I figure that's not bad for the 2 seeds I planted! I thought I should take the eggplant and another zuchinni! So it is ratatouille tonight!

And on the pumpkin theme I found this Pumpkin Ale from the Great Lakes Brewing Company at the LCBO. Can't wait to try it... I thought I better buy it when I see it, because with these local breweries you see them once and then never again in the liquor store...I tried a nice beer from Railway City Brewery in St Thomas, ON called Spike Amber....mmm good beer, never to be seen again at the Liquor store...not fair.

Pumpkin's Progress

I keep checking and I still have 5 pumpkins growing in my plot. 2 of them are starting to turn orange!

Well, the beans are done, the peas are done, all that is left in my garden is pumpkin, zucchini and eggplant and some basil. I picked a zucchini for dinner tonight and I was invited to pick the corn in the children's garden! We had that for dinner as well, was it ever delicious!!
