Victoria lies more or less at the southernmost tip of Vancouver island. The coast line thus spreads away to the northwest and northeast. The west coast of the island tends to be rocky and precipitous, beautiful but not as inviting to the agriculturist as the eastern flank, known as the Saanich Peninsula, pictured above. These are the pumpkin (or squash) fields of Mitchell's farm market where one can buy all sorts of fresh produce.

Will you show us this field again when the pumpkins have grown?
Lovely, lush, sunny agricultural shot! Yes, show us the pumpkins later . . .
Thirded for pumpkins!

I went for a bike ride near there not that long ago! beautiful! have you ever checked out the model airplane flying zone down the road? kind of cool!
OK OK OK I will definitely go out there when the pumpkins are ready for Halloween.
Natalie, thanks for the model airplane info - I'll have to check that out next time I'm in that neighbourhood.
