Home grown sunflower seeds!

This year I grew sunflowers. Joe eats sunflower seeds like crazy so I thought I would try my hand at growing them. They were huge! Each sunflower harvested tons of seeds. 
It was in the harvesting that Joe took interest in these giant seed producing flowers. He started researching them online and learning everything he could about removing the seeds from the flower, drying them out, flavoring them, how long they lasted. It has been interesting to watch him. It has also given me the opportunity to work on other things.

 This is the kind of sunflowers we grew. Most of them are about the size of a frisbee


These are some seeds that Joe harvested. They are delicious!
