If I had to bet money, there are some teenage boys driving around with some "free" pumpkins throwing them at mailboxes...

Fall garden is in the ground, although the ground is like talcum powder. I been hand watering. One a few dozen plants. Rain is expected for the next 4-5 days. HOPE SO...
Got my ground tilled up for some strawberry plants I'm putting in (250-500). Me and my nephew went in on 500. If he doesn't want all of them, I'm going to plant the rest. Each one oughta produce about 2#. If so that's a lotta strawberries. I do this ever few years for our family. When they are ripe I assign every two days a different person to pick. If they miss an opportunity they go to the back of the line. It's pretty common to get about 20-30# in a pick. We only pick the fully red ones for best flavor. We usually freeze ours and that lasts us a few years.
Got a decent row of snaps producing, but they are really wanting some rain. Late okra was a bust. Summer squash and zucchini are blooming.
