garden update

We have reason to believe the "required space" per plant as allotted on the back of the seed packages was not quite accurate...either that or this once pig pen is creating a steroid effect on our garden.  Either way it is awesome...and slightly unmanageable at the same time.

yes.  3 plants each of summer squash and zucchini is far too much for this family.
but don't worry, we are determined to eat or freeze it ALL.
