Crooked Necks look good, Neighbor, I used to love to BBQ Ka-Bobs with Venison backstrap, Yellow Crooked Neck Squash and Own-Yawns alternatively on the stick. :chef: :cheers: :salut: :texas:

No, I don’t do corn or peas because of the deer. I would need to plant a larger area for that. I have the area behind the barn fenced. I would love to plant corn and peas but just don’t want to build a one acre high fence

If you’re talking about the switch cane those are tomato stakes. I put 3 around each plant and then put Vet Wrap around the stakes. The Vet Wrap stretches and it’s a cheap alternative to the store bought cages when you have as many plants as I do. I’ve got cages on the table tomatoes but those are Roma’s for canning. I’ll take a picture of the set up when I go feed this afternoon

We used to dig those little ones up and Mom called them "New Potatoes" - - she fixed them with a cream gravy and "WOW"

That’s what we call them too no matter what the size and the cream sauce is a necessity. My plans were not well received inside the house and it will be Monday before I get my potatoes

Yes Sir; it’s starting to happen. Little Yellow Squash, some cucumbers the size of your little finger, tiny peppers and tomatoes. I may go Vegan for a while but I do love Country Ham with fresh vegetables
