As I drove south from Minnesota to Mississippi this fall, I zigged and zagged from my usual route to see several precious friends.
One took me to Stony Ridge Farm, Laura Ingalls Wilder’s final home, in Mansfield, Missouri. Here are several photos.
Our second stop was Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds Farm, the largest grower of heirloom seeds in the U.S. They devoted ten acres to growing many varieties of pumpkins, gourds, and squash and piled them up to create this MOUNTAIN! Very impressive. I also stocked up on some special seeds for my own garden next summer. Stay tuned..

Whether you use your pumpkins for pies or to create an artistic monument, give thanks around the table, in God’s creation, and everywhere.
Happy Thanksgivings 2025. Make the rest of this year absolutely great, and make life count.
