The pumpkins have taken over! Next year we will have to remember to plant less and possibly quarantine them to their own pool because they were taking over the peppers. Last week one of the students "J-roll" couldn't stand the thought of "sacrificing a pumpkin" so he planted it in the mulch pile and its actually growing. This week we tied up some more tomatoes, moved a few peppers and tried to wrangle the pumpkin/squash. We also made a couple of nice bouquets with the marigolds and the zinnias.

SQUASH OVERLOAD

Although we missed last week and it seems the garden really benefited from our absence. The pumpkins were growing up the fence!! We tried to pull some out and sacrifice them for the good of the garden, but the kids weren't having it so we planted them in the mulch pile.
