Zucchini plants!

In August this year, we are going to have zucchini races! You’ll take a zucchini, add wheels, decorate it, and bring it to the track. There will be prizes for zucchini cars in various categories. There are more details to come.

Of course, to have zucchini races, you have to have zucchini. So this month, we’re starting zucchini plants indoors. You’ll take home a container that has soil and seeds in it. Keep it watered, and when you see the seeds start to sprout, move the container to a sunny spot indoors.

In spring, when the temperature is above 50 degrees at night, start getting your plants used to being outside. Put them out in a protected area with dappled sunlight during the day and bring them at night. Do this for a week to 10 days. Then plant them in a sunny spot in the garden.

By early August, you will be harvesting zucchini!
