The pumpkins are doing much better than I thought they would with the cooler weather that we are having.

Very awesome Liisa!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking so good! I love pumpkin hill!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an astounding transformation!
ReplyDeleteI remember the original site photos and thinking, "Does Liisa know what she's gotten herself into?"
You have guided this garden site and its voluteers to something of which to be really proud. Congratulations!
Everything is looking great (except the peppers). My peppers are twiddling their thumbs, waiting for the warm weather too... Can't wait to see the harvests!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone.
ReplyDeletePhil - Wish I could take credit for the playhouse and shade structure but I can't. They have been in the plans for some time. My main focus is to keep the garden projects moving with ideas and guidance.
wow, everything looks GREAT!=)
