Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Maybe I'll have to transplant my pumpkin plants into big pots and bring them inside until they produce sufficiently

You can pretty much use any hard shell winter squash in place of pumpkin.. some are sweeter some less sweet etc. But it's like using a different variety of apples.. it still ends up apple pie

But I don't understand how a poor crop this year affects canned pumpkin?

i think it's been getting to this point the past few years. it's probably ccd-related.

My local grocery chain told me it just isnt season - meaning Thanksgiving.
