I'm beaming for you - both for growing such great veggies, and for your son eating them! Ohio must be vole-free because I can't grow a zucc (or any trailing vine veggie) to save my life. The voles eat them the minute the flowers open.
Wow, beautiful veggies!!! So fun that your boy was totally into it!!
Yesterday I was in Charleston at my friend's in-laws garden. They had blueberries, white peaches and orange peaches, pecan and fig trees....I told him that I would go out there every morning with my cereal bowl and fill it with all that goodness, wish I could grow something....
R ate an entire cucumber off the vine, in one sitting. This from a boy who "doesn't like cucumbers." Love it.

ReplyDeleteWow those are some MASSIVE zukes. I thought they were eggplants at first.
ReplyDeleteThis goes to show the #1 way to get kids to eat healthy -- get them invovled in the first place!
Yay Sweet Pea Fam!
What a great kid! We haven't tried to grow cucumbers yet. Maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! They always say that kids will eat the veggies if they help grow them - now we have proof.
ReplyDeleteOur cucs always came out skinny at the top - kind of like a goose neck squash. Yours are beautiful.

Oh how I love when my son will eat something he normally says he doesn't like!
ReplyDeletep.s. I am so jealous of your veggies!
