Click on images for full size. "The 2009 crop is now all in. It got off to a slow start with a cold June but finally warmed up and the vines took off. Had a hard time finding the gourds under all the leaves but after the frost there they were. Lost some do to the slow start but ended up with 37 pallets worth. Canteens, apples, penguins, cannonballs, martins, minis, a few marankas, penis shields, bushels, Apache dippers, long handled dippers, kettles, swans and a few ducks, a few big warties and a bunch of bananas. Looking forward to the festival in July!"Jim Martin Central Washington Gourds P.O. Box 28 (mail) 460 East Allen Road Sunnyside, WA email:  |
| Gloria Dittrick | WSGS Member - (Hobby Gourd grower in Moses Lake) I'm REALLY happy with some of the big bushels. They are going to make huge bowls w/lids. Not sure what kind of design I'll come up with.... that's a lot of territory to cover !! May have to save them until I get better at this! We put them under our deck (which is covered), where they don't get rained on, and it's easier for me to keep an eye on them in case they need turning etc. It sure worked for the "ducks" These should keep me good and busy all next year, while another new batch is growing. My husband was not to hot on planting any again until he saw the money I was spending to buy gourds that were NOT shaped like a duck !! Now he wants to tear up the lawn and use the whole back yard to grow gourds.! He thinks our back yard is worth a fortune. Gloria

| Dennis Conley's Gourd Field | WSGS Member -
Click on images for full size. I grow hard-shell gourds in Moses Lake, Washington. I grow about 2 acres and have been doing it for about 7 years now. I do have some inventory of uncleaned gourds from the 2005 and 2006 crop that have not been picked over too much. If you are ever over this way and want to look at the "bins" let me know. Here are pictures of my field in 2006 in late August and in 2005 just after the frost.
