    peas, peppers, pears, potatoes (fresh ones will ruin you for store-bought!), wish we could grow peaches here but this fall we will pick pumpkins. My DH wants to try growing a giant pumpkin LOL.

    Quince

    badger: we (my DH) grows pumpkins forHalloween but about end of july beginning of August he takes sharp knife and other toils to carve face or our names into the green skin. He just barely scrapes the surface so as the Pumpkin matures these markings heal over and you get "instant" decorated pumpkin.
    Help - where do you find the icon to click in order to post a picture??

    Rhubarb, raspberries, rutabaga

    Pheasantduster, the icon you want to use to post a picture looks like this image
    It's not available if you're using the plain text editor to post, but try switching to the rich text editor (link next to the Submit button) if you don't see the icon. Looking forward to your pumpkin pic!
