We grew lots of veg last year... the peas were especially well received but none actually got cooked!!
I wonder how easy it is to grow pumpkins? they sound a great project for eyfs, lots of measuring, etc.:clapping:

I thought we'd grow some flowers each child could have their own individual pot and the older ones can record how their flowers grow.
Nice site :thumbsup:

I've got some pumpkin seeds ready to plant - how lovely will that be if they work out - we can use them at Halloween to make halloween pumpkins, as well as cooking the flesh! They need so much room though - not sure where I'm going to put them!! Has anyone ever grown them in pots?
