Orange Things

We planted all things orange (carrots and pumpkins) on May 1st.

Our square foot style pumpkin patch works like this:

There are four squares next to the trellis. Pumpkins need one plant per 2 square feet. Simon planted three small sugar pumpkin seeds on one end; Elijah planted three on the other. The two middle squares are housing cabbage (they won't take up any trellis room). Once the seeds sprout, we will only allow the best looking plant on each side to live on (and up the trellis they will go!).
