Visited the Ambridge Farmers' Market on Thursday & saw these gorgeous mums ...... then bought some Strawberry Fields gomphrena to dry for winter arrangements. It joins the magenta cocks comb from last weekend --- hanging upside down near the basement dehumidifier!
Our annual fall heirloom pumpkin & squash display got off to a nice start with a Long Island Cheese Pumpkin from Douds-Floyd Farm ..... it's in the bag on the far right in this display of pumpkins & squash. On Saturday morning we picked up a swan neck gourd at the little farmers' market in Lisbon, Ohio. We also got a giant head of cauliflower. It's about a foot wide! The annual search for worthy pumpkins, gourds, and squash continues ............ can you name all of the varieties in this photo??? Come to the market to read the signs & pick out your favorite. The traditional squashes & pumpkins were the ones used for pies & cooking ..... not the jack-o-lantern varieties that we see now everywhere for sale!
