Pumpkin pie

[ODD]

It would seem that at least some of us are happy with their pumpkin pie. Yes they do take up a lot growing space but different varieties of pumpkins and squashes can add a lot of variety and interest to the allotment. This year we had  wide range of different pumpkins and swashes grown on our site with promises of an even wider range next season.

On the cooking front we also make chutney and soup both of which can be delicious. Any of you who fancy making soup, pie or preserve will be welcome to our annual pumpkin event at Ellistown in Leciestershire on 31 October. details on our web site eagsociety.co.cc/
So that the pumpkin is not wasted we are also holding a carved pumpkin face competition.
