Fresh Pumpkin Smells

The two little (of the four) garden pumpkins

Wow! Never before has the kitchen smelled so good. Cut into a fresh pumpkin from the garden and the smell is fantastic. These two (and one other) were harvested and left for a few days to dry. We had the larger one between 4 adults and one child and it did more than one meal. The colour, the small and the taste were unbelievable. Vegies from the garden taste great, but this one topped the lot.

congratulations Andrew! :)

We are watching our pumpkins start, but I don't like our chances before winter.

I've been doing a permaculture design course at the Polytech. We keep notes on the course, with videos etc.

I have a growing photo series of edible plants I am finding that are said to grow very easily around Dunedin.

Also, not that you're likely to be checking your blog comments on Sunday, but Waitati is having a food growers festival today.. here's the poster.
