blue ribbon* vegetables
The competition was stiff-ish, but we pulled out two wins for our best zuchini squash (one of four so far) and one of our 18 sugar snap peas. It was a small event, the LLL Farm Summer Fair. No rides, no rodeos, no vendors other than the array of candy jars on Grandma's fridge. And we didn't advertise much, which was a good strategy for winning our submissions. Look, you've got to start somewheres. We'll be ready for the Big Time another year.

Hahahaha! YES.
I recognize the judge's hand-writing... interesting.
Zor looks so proud. I'm glad she doesn't know she was the only contestant.
What a great job! All that hard work really paid off. And, following the Tillamook tradition, you should make zucchini-cantaloup bread or something.
JUST FYI, both dave and I LOVE this picture. He clicked on the blog several times yesterday just to look at it. It's so freaking hilarious (the first one of Zor with the veggies).
Lori: WOW blue ribbon gardening..you've come so far since those days in AK...I couldn't be prouder.
