I didn’t realize it’s been a month since I posted. Whoops! A lot has changed in a month

This heat has put a major dent in my plans! I wanted to have everything planted by now. I’m a week behind but it is what it is 😬🤷🏼‍♀️. Monday evening I did manage to get our Zucchini seeds planted and our small wee be little pumpkins planted. The little ones will eventually climb up that lattice that is laying on the ground. We haven’t gotten it staked up yet because I still have a little time. And after that crazy wind last night, I’m really glad I haven’t put it up yet.

We’re back!! We didn’t update last summer like we usually do. Last year wasn’t as great of a year for us. We were busy and our crop was not so great. So we didn’t sell any last year because we didn’t have a lot to spare. But we hope this year is better! We are no where near the most experienced when it comes to pumpkins 😆. This is simply a hobby for us that our oldest daughter and I started 5 years ago, but we do hope that we have extra to sell. Our patch has been tilled and we are just waiting for it to quit raining and dry out a little bit so that we can get them in the ground! The pictures below are what we will be planting this year. I will try to be better about updating this year. I have a few people who enjoy the updates so I will try to remember to be more regular.

Checking on patch #1

We finished planting a few days ago!! We are a couple weeks behind when we usually plant but June started out hectic with no extra time to spare. We have two patches this year so we could hopefully have just a tad more room. Don’t let Emma fool you in this picture…I was the one doing all of the hard work. 😆 She just dropped the seeds in the ground.

Hey guys!! Getting ready to order seeds soon and I’m trying to decide what we are going to plant this year. There’s tons of varieties to choose from. So we would like some input! What would YOU like to see us plant!? Big, small, unique colors, basic ones, etc... we always like to mix it up a little bit and change up what we plant because our space is very limited and I can’t plant everything that we would like to every year. We definitely plan to try again on the Pink pumpkins since we didn’t have good luck last year.

I did a video this morning instead of live so it would be more clear. I never seem to have a great connection when doing a live.
