Stuart: July 2008 Archives

Here is what the Trumbetta squash is supposed to look like. This one grew on the ground so that is why it is round. We chopped it up and sautéed it with onions and a little bit of garlic, salt, and pepper. All of the seeds are in the bottom so the whole long neck is just flesh. Very tasty!

Also, here is this week’s harvest. A few weeks ago, we applied some Garret Juice plus garlic and orange oil - this seems to have reduced our squash bug problem at least a little bit.

This monster pokeweed grows wild between the shed and alley way. There seems to be disagreement over whether it is edible or poisonous but we haven’t tried it ourselves.
