Lunch break.

Got all the tomatoes (except for the stupid teeny tiny cherries that I am tired of picking), got part of the zucchini and pattypans, got some ground cherries, got all the field peppers, and picked one more bucket of chokecherries. Fed large […]

A wheelbarrow with a large bin about half full of mostly very small tomatoes, a bucket of peppers and a bucket of ground cherries on top of the tomatoes, and a whole lot of weird zucchini and cucumbers in the main part of the wheelbarrow, with a bucket of chokecherries balanced on top.

We’ve had some delicious pattypans and tomatoes (grown in hubby’s allotment) and lots of other squash, lettuces & cucumbers from others :) Loving this delicious home-grown produce 😋

I love any squash, but pattypans are especially fun and delicious!

the pattypans we've been buying this year have been wonderful, hope the same is true for your homegrowns!

it feels like the oddball weather has been great for pattypans and strawberries both 🤷🏻‍♀️

Pattypans aren’t meant to last. 🌱

It’s a very particular kind of pattypan, I have four other pattypans going, this is the best

I had yellow and green pattypans as controls, this one blew them out of the water (though they are tasty too)

In addition to the cute shape and firm texture, there’s a lot less risk of pattypans getting out of hand in size or quantity

Harvest day! Here's today's haul, and some glam shots of my garden. This pic really doesn't convey the scale of the produce; that broccoli is about the size of my head. More descriptions in the alts.
Yellow pattypan zucchini, a huge honkin' head of broccoli, like 20 Russian Red garlics freshly dug up and ready to be cured, all framed by a bunch of California poppies. I've never been so successful with broccoli before! And this is my first time growing pattypans, which have turned out quite tender and tasty. I was worried about my garlic, because another variety that I grew ended up kinda small, but the Russians are ever robust and reliable. I haven't had to buy garlic in years. A pic of a portion of my garden. Several garden boxes are resplendent with growth. Well, the garlic plot is half harvested. Another one is jam packed with sunflowers, peas, squash, and corn. Perhaps I overdid it this year; it seems like the corn is suffering from the proximity to the robust sunflowers. Though you can't see it very well, the hind boxes have brussel sprouts, cabbage, strawberry, and asparagus plants. Another sector of my garden. Here we've got beets, more squash, zucchini, edamame, potatoes, broccoli, carrots, and onions.

How do you cook the pattypans? I just got one in a produce box and I’ve never had one before.

I might need to get some pattypans from you. I wasn't able to get them started

Those white pattypans are really pretty

The tricolor pattypans will be interesting. The seeds came in the same packet but they were dyed, so I easily sorted them by color to guarantee one pair of each. The striped ones are totally new to me and I am excited.

This is a story about...
Sometimes, I dream of a little stone cottage with a bay window looking out onto a narrow grey cobbled street that dips away into a sea view. I know that the pub across the road with the thickly-painted black chains hanging from bollards will serve ale-battered fish and chips with overcooked green peas and yellow pattypans. I can feel the briny breeze on my cheek, and sometimes it will playfully flick a lock of hair, as if to invite me to walk down to the quay that is hiding just over the brow. It's a place where time is unhurried, I can sit at my window seat and read, or go across the road to order food and share a joke. When I wake from those dreams, I feel relaxed and peaceful. Sometimes, I daydream about that place, and it makes me feel soft. I get a lot of time to daydream here, so I often visit that place. I used to work in the kitchen, but for various reasons, I don’t anymore. I enjoyed spending time in the workshop too, but they figured that wasn't a good idea. The library will send me books, and I have an endless supply of notepaper and stubby pencils that get counted in and out. It makes me laugh how uptight they are about simply anything that comes into my room. You would swear I was going to garotte someone with a shoelace or stab them in the throat with a pencil, or something. You would be surprised how strong a pencil-thickness of braided hair can be though. I wear my hair short now. .

Pattypans are known to the State of California to cause cancer or other reproductive harm.

The display in question. All produce (except the tin of beans) from my allotment or the Soup Garden at church, all will go towards the soup kitchen (they'll easily get through it in a week).
On the floor in front of an altar with a white cloth with lace edging, some wheat, a tray of potatoes, a mangelwurzel, some turnips, carrots, apples and pattypans, and several winter squash in a variety of shapes and sizes. Nestled among the squash is a tin of beans.

Try searching for White Scallop Squash. That's how I found it. These are just a weird variant I guess. They're huge by comparison to the regular pattypans I had.

Cool! Kind of like variations of a pattypan squash (but pattypans are summer squashes).
