    I hope you film the pumpkin roll this year. I very much enjoy watching the cows dodge rolling pumpkins. As a matter of fact, the pumpkin roll from a few years back is the very first Veggie Boys video I watched and have not missed one since.

    Awesome video as always. Why couldn't you raise the final belt on your potato digger, I see it has a hydraulic cylinder on it? Raise it higher, weld up a couple low profile lil trailers to follow the digger side by side, the potatoes would go into the short trailer? Keep you from manually picking up the potatoes? If you had 2 or 3 lil trailers, they could go up and dump, come right back. Just a thought??

    Wow! Those kohlrabi were almost as big as Matthews head! The amount of spuds in that row you harvested was incredible and it looked like hardly any rocks. You mentioned your last planting of sweet corn which gives me good opportunity to ask you a question that's been stirring in my mind for the last several weeks Andrew. I noticed that all this season you veggie boys haven't silaged any of the sweet corn and you've also got a tube of silage out in front of the stables that I believe is still from last year, so, what's the story behind this? Also, you guys grow an abundance of pumpkins but I don't see any varieties of squash other than the yellow and zucchini. Why don't you grow various other squash? Curious to know. --- Keith

    We find it a lot easier to pick the pumpkins like you do the corn. Instead of making piles we pick about a 20 foot wide swath and make 2 almost solid lines of pumpkins wide enough to drive between then just like the corn a person on each side loads right onto the bin as soon as one is full another tractor and bin pulls in. It takes about 2 minutes to fill each bin this way and no lifting over your head. Sometimes if we are short a driver we just put the tractor in the highest creeper gear and let it go without a driver it is slow enough that you can reach up and correct the steering from the ground if needed.
