Let’s enjoy the Fall 🍂🍁🎃 Im only picking gourds if the vine is dead. I have some deer that will sometimes stroll through here, and they love pumpkins! This year flew by. | Sweet Woodruff Farm

Everything’s growing so slow in the cool weather. But my camera roll shows me they grew the same way last year… flash forward a few weeks on the camera roll and… inspiration! Growing gourds in Maine! #growyourcanvas | Sweet Woodruff Farm

No Mow May, is a lot easier when you don’t have leaves on the trees yet! 🙂🍁🐝🌷 | Sweet Woodruff Farm

The Perfect Pumpkin. 🎃☺️ Saving Seeds. Growing Gourds in Maine. | Sweet Woodruff Farm

It’s seed starting time! How exciting! I start my gourds in 6” pots because they do not like their roots disturbed when you transplant them into the garden. I have used 4” with ok results, but the small six pak sizes are too small. If gourd roots are disturbed, they could get stunted which can slow their growth for several weeks. Our growing season is too short for that! Next year I’m going to need a green house! 🌱🌱🤷🏼‍♂️👏🙂 | Sweet Woodruff Farm
