By now, I suspect the season is well-past for most of my plants, but there
are two that might still be growing strong: a spaghetti squash and a pumpkin.
I have culinary designs for the spaghetti squash, but the rationale behind the pumpkin is a bit more whimsical: I want
to see if I can grow a pumpkin large enough to be carved into a clever jack-o’-lantern. I’d have to agree with Quinn Schomburg, Plymouth’s own Pumpkin King —I think all pumpkins
inherently have jack-o’-lantern aspirations.
