Add me to the list for the Pumpkin Badge! Down here in Florida, the traditional carving pumpkins don't grow. But we grow what is called a Seminole Pumpkin which belongs to the Cucurita Moschata variety that also includes the butternut squash. While the Seminole pumpkin is orange and looks like a pumpkin, the inside meat is almost identical to the butternut squash in color and taste. This variety of pumpkin is the only one that can survive the relentless heat and humidity of a Florida Summer. Boy do they make a delicious pie!

Thank you Krista. I also have a lot of badges to work on since I am new here. Winnie- butternut is my favorite squash so that pumpkin sounds good to me! I had squash bugs so bad last year that I decided not to plant any squash this year. Next year I will try again.
It’s true! Soon we’ll be releasing our new Merit Badges. I’ve been working on the badge designs since last week and today and and tomorrow hope to finalize our Dec. MaryJanesFarm Sister Issue, which is where we always announce new Merit Badges every year. If all goes as planned, they’ll show up in your inbox in our Sister Issue the morning of the first day of 2021. Stay tuned.
Yippee! This is the year I finally have time to work on badges as Sara is pretty independent now and we hired someone to help me on the property! 4 years I've been wanting to do this! Cant wait to see what's new! Thanks Cydnie!
