Pumpkins

THE pumpkins are looking more and more like footballs as they lie in the garden beds growing bigger and bigger.

So large in fact, he hens simply walk around them now as they are too big to step over.

This year there are Queensland blue, Jap and a heritage variety are sprawled about and I can't wait to make roast pumpkin soup with blue cheese garnish. 

Pumpkinsare amazing to grow - the seed is so small and the results fantastic!

This year I used seeds from the 2012 crop and it's been great to see them pop up all over.
