my neighbors grandma likes neck pumpkins,she says they make the best pie. I grew some in the garden for her last year.She always told me stories of how when she was young her father would plant them in the corn field and they would harvest them while picking the corn, This spring she gave me all the seeds that she saved from last years neck pumpkins. On a slope across from the road from her house her grandson no till planted field corn, There were some patches where the corn did not come up,or may have been pulled out by a big flock of canadian geese that landed there,I took her seed,walked along the hillside with a hoe ,scratched a hole here and there,dropped in a few seeds ,and kicked dirt over it with my foot, Did nothing else till I harvested some yesterday. She is a happy lady,calling all her friends and relatives to come get a neck pumpkin! Several of her old friends stopped by yesterday. She said it was the best crop she has seen since she lived on that farm,and shes been there over 80 years,jokingly,she said and a man from nj grew them! She said it in front of her son in law,I dont know if he liked that comment or not... lol
The best part of all for me is that my daughter,who is 19 came with us yesterday. She helped me and took the pictures. Although she is not as interested in the country life as I am I think she got an idea of why I do like it and is starting to understand me a little better, I was talking with her yesterday,and I explained to her some men watch football,some play golf,this is what I love,its not work to me,I think she finally saw it yesterday and understood. See you all later ,,,gotta go !!!
