WHAT'S BIG, BLUE, WARTY, LURKS IN THE GARDEN AND IS NOT UNCLE MAC AFTER A HARD FROST?

THE SCOURGE

Well that would be our bestest autumn friend, the blue Hubbard squash wouldn't it? Farm Girl told you all about it a while back in this great post HERE, if you'd like to catch up.

Here is one of them, doing what blue hubbards do best ie. over running the garden and blocking the pathways and such.

Just look at the great hulking brute! And it still has a long way to grow before its done. Think of all the great pies and custards and dishes of steamed squash with a little brown sugar! The blue Hubbard squash, too late to start any now but put them on the list for next year.

This is Agnes, scootin' for the high brush before someone ketches me postin' agin'. Thanks for stoppin' by!
