L, J1 and I planted a garden last spring as a Young Women Personal Progress Value Project. It has been quite a learning adventure for us. We discovered that seeds that are at least 10 years old aren't any good - and some seeds that were only a year old didn't grow either. We learned tomatoes don't need a lot of water, pumpkins need a lot of space, one zucchini plant really is enough and many more little tidbits of information that will help make future gardens even more successful than this year's.

We have 4 large pumpkins to make into jack-o-lanterns.

We've enjoyed lots of cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, zucchini and yellow squash. We've had a few red, yellow, orange and green peppers and some carrots.

I have been dying to know if you drowned in zucchini ever since Don said he planted so many.
Let's just say that we ate a lot of steamed zucchini, made a lot of zucchini bread, gave away and threw away a lot of zucchini ... and then when I couldn't stand the sight of them anymore, I went out and pulled up all the plants.
How many zucchini's did you plant??
