This year we had about 8-10 sunflowers planted around the yard. Since we didn't get to harvest any seeds last year off the plants we had, we decided to give it a try this year.
We got a few seeds...the whole kitchen table was covered! :)
After roasting them, we have 7 quarts of seeds...which Josh thinks will last him through the year! I hope so! :)
We got to the bottom of the sorting pile after removing the seeds from the flower heads, and decided to do the birdfeeder option with the rest. So we flipped a couple bigger sunflower heads over and filled them with the leftover seeds. Hopefully the birds and squirrels with enjoy them.
Of course, this could just be a luring point for the hunters in the family...
