Here is another frosted potato. Posted by Hello

The lettuce is growing too! Posted by Hello

This is where I threw out an rotten pumpkin last year. I think the seeds got worked into the soil when the garden was tilled this spring. If anyone would like pumpkins starts, I would be glad to share. Posted by Hello
