The Pumpkin Patch is pretty much all set for the kids to plant the seeds they’ve collected. The weeds are cleared, compost added, and the rabbits have moved in.
There’s a nest somewhere in the undergrowth at the bottom of the patch near the waterway occupied by a mother and 3 or 4 young rabbits. I’ve been expecting them to show up. We had 4 or 5 resident rabbits at our old house (plus all the squirrels) and had started joking that we moved to the country to get away from the wildlife.
The kiddos may have a bit of a challenge protecting the young seedlings. Maybe Pip can help when she’s not busy attacking flowers.
