Andy picked the least hail-damaged of the apples:
And he brought home this zucchini.
It was about 8″ long, and he said he’s going to have to watch that plant. The zucchini was only a few inches long the last time he looked. The minute our backs are turned….

They are growng so well!
Yes, that plant looks happy. 🙂
Zucchini seem to be good at doing that. A friend of my husbands used to bring me a bag full every year and his were all about a foot long and fat.
🙂
Yep zucchini are known for that “spurt of growth” …. but still you’ve got harvesting underway – that greenhouse has been a godsend for food for sure….
It’s fun to watch things grow, and anything we harvest is an added bonus.
This could easily turn into a zucchini para story! Haha the night of the giant zucchini! Sorry about the ruined apples
The apples were edible, just not very attractive.
a wonderful harvest! how do you prepare your zucchini?
I confess to not eating it often. I had a friend who made a wonderful casserole from it. I have to learn to be more of a squash person. I only like the small yellow squash steamed and with butter… or sometimes chopped onions.
I’m not a very inventive cook!
I’m less of a cook than you are. I just microwave them with no butter or salt. I have no problem scarfing them down. 🙂
A blogger I read actually buys bushels of bruised apples because they are cheap. Then she cut out the bad spots and make applesauce from the rest. Her family loves applesauce.
That’s a great idea. 🙂
