Het Gazebo hosta season winds down

Today was the last Weeding Wednesday for 2022 
It was another succesful year at Het Gazebo in Diepenheim
thanks to all the hours the volunteers put in ! 
Sunny, 10 C, as the last weeds and leaves were raked this morning!
A warming bowl of hoemmade pumpkin soup for lunch
rounded off the day ! 
See you back at Het Gazebo in 2023 !

There's still time

to enjoy beautiful Autumn colours at Het Gazebo !
Wild mushrooms and a salamander full of life amongst the hostas
 and leaves surprised the volunteers on this sunny day!
When you view Het Gazebo from the look out Monomet 
the veins of this abstract hosta art form are clearly seen !
It's mid November and the weeds are so good as gone !

It's that time of year !

A chilly Autumnal day in November at Het Gazebo !
Brrr ! The volunteers were dressed warm and used 
different tactics to avoid contact with the ground while weeding !
There's more leaves on the ground that on the trees !
Hostas are few and far between ! 
But there was warm coffee and home made cake !

A very blustery dry sunny day !

The Autumn leaves from the Red Beech trees at Het Gazebo
 are blowing around covering the hosta beds for the Winter!
A great day to get out and volunteer !
Those butternut squash in the photo you might ask?
It grows here in The Netherlands as well !
One of the volunteers grows it at her allotment and brought a few to share !
