| First cutting of our second planting of sunflowers. |
 |
| Rocky had never grown anything from seed until these sunflowers. Don't you think she did great? |
 |
| Anna is carrying a crate full of produce. Levi is tugging on her to help himself walk with less effort! He was being a goof ball. :) |
 |
| Anna made these cheddar, herb biscuits to go with her soup for lunch today. I didn't get a picture of the soup. Both were so wonderful on this cool blustery day! |
 |
| Terry and Grams are having a cup of coffee to help stay warm. Terry is holding the canopy down during the gusts of wind. |
 |
| Dessert today! |
 |
| Today's sweet pepper selection. |
 |
| Delicious grapes. |
 |
| Rocky and Bryan selecting the prunes to bag up for today's boxes. |
 |
| Don't these make your mouth water? |
 |
| Today's hot pepper selection. |
 |
| Chili peppers. |
 |
| Hungarian Wax. |
 |
| Jalapeno. |
 |
| Peperoncini. |
 |
| Serrano. These are the hottest we grow. |
 |
| If you've ever wondered what horseradish looks like right out of the ground? It is a deep growing root. |
 |
| Brown centered sunflowers with short, wide yellow petals. Stunning with the purple statice. |
 |
| Green centered, long petaled sunflowers are showy with the red zinnias. |
 |
| Grams and Terry stay out of the weather while they sort out the corn. It was a chilly day. |
 |
| Rocky just returned from her vacation. She brought us an amaranth chocolate bar! We grow amaranth and she saw it in Central America and thought we should taste test it! What a thoughtful worker. |
 |
| Some of this year's ornamental gourds, pumpkins and the last of the cantaloupe. |
 |
| The reddish-orangey ones on the left are Turban squash. |
 |
| Grams and Terry put their bouquets of basil in the boxes. Terry is enjoying her "bouquet". |
 |
| Horseradish being washed. |
 |
| A messy job. "But it's clean dirt." |
 |
| Broccoli, white cauliflower and purple cauliflower shoots. |
 |
| Sour Mexican Gherkins. We grew them up a trellis this year to make them easier to find among all their leaves. |
 |
| Bryan tidying up after the wind blew in lots of leaves today. |
 |
| Today's "bouquet in a pumpkin" to be raffled off during pick up. Anna cleaned out the pumpkin, Lisa fitted an empty coffee can inside for the vase. Isn't her bouquet cheery? |
 |

 |
| Lisa putting together her pretty bouquets. |
 |
| Lush flowers. (Hey, the sun came out for a minute!) |
 |
| Such beautiful, bright colors. |
 |
| Sunflowers in with other beauties. |
 |
| Scented geraniums for the greenery. |
 |
| Pink dahlias. Dahlias will bloom up until the frosts begin. |
 |
| Lisa's sweet pumpkin bouquet and also a sweet treat for those picking up their boxes today. Watermelons and a pumpkin keep the table cloth from blowing away. |
 |
| Oh my gosh, isn't she sweet? She came with her parents to pick up their box today. She is exactly 1 week, 1 hour old. We are thrilled they brought her along. Nice to meet you Little One! |
