Anyone else get giddy over all the strange colors and shapes of gourds?  I can’t choose a favorite and I bet you can’t either.  It’s an exciting time here at the garden center as we celebrate Fall harvest.  Apples are back in season at the grocery stores and Sunnyside has bushels upon bushels of squash, gourds, ornamental corn and pumpkins.  If you’re curious about how passionate we all are about our gourds and pumpkins, go ahead and ask one of us to help you pick the best one….you might be in for a bit of an experience.
