oh wow what a truly fantastic post and a awesome garden. What an effort.
I love France, spent lots of time there as a teenager, in a tiny weee village in the middle. lol.
We have not had room for pumpkins yet. I have started some seeds and hoping we can get the concrete/stone jungle cleared enough to plant them this season.
please keep posting your progress, i am truly interested.
thanks for sharing your magnificent garden. Just tagging @riverflows in case she has not seen this post yet.

love and light right back.
Hey there Sarah! Many thanks for your enthusiastic words and great to learn you spent some time here in France when you were younger. Do you speak any French as a consequence? Mine is still terrible! Just can't seem to get the hang of it for some reason.
Though I believe I am very much getting the hang of growing food! At this time of year almost everything I eat is from the garden and my body responds to it by giving me extra energy :)
Will have to do a few more updates on this garden because I've not yet shown you all the other things growing here. Have you every heard of cucamelons? They are a cross between cucumbers & melons! And children love them :)
Morning, yes i do speak some French. However i have forgotten a lot of it. I find Southern French people more difficult to understand though. I learnt at school and at university.
Cucamelons? i planted them last week!!! lol. Very cute looking little plant. I have had them before, but YEARS ago before kids. I cant wait to see what they are like. We have had problems this season finding cucumber seed varieties and no seedlings out in the shops yet. I guess it IS still too cold for them really but i wanted to start them inside. I have been meaning to get some heated seed mats for the seeds. I must look them up this morning.
I love seeing progress across the gardens, so please update us. And show us the cucamelons. I would love to see how much space they take up. my Kids are cucumber addicts so hopefully they like them
thanks for your reply
Sarah
