With the bad weather earlier in the year, my pumpkin plants were very late to get going and what I was really hoping for was a long, warm autumn to allow them to catch up. In fairness, September has had some lovely days, BUT we have already had 4 frosts so I decided that I couldn't risk leaving them out in the garden any longer and I would have to harvest them today.
This was my pumpkin patch this morning - not looking too hopeful on the pumpkin front I thought and already showing frost damage in the middle.
But I sent in my brave harvesters to see what they could find:

And would you believe THIS is how many we harvested. WOW!!
Anyone for pumpkin pie, soup, cake, risotto, roast ..... ?
