I was a bit sceptical but this is nice - I just picked a few young leaves and boiled them for a short time.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

I grow rhubarb chard and leaf beet and use it like spinach - steamed, drained, knob of butter on the top, black pepper - delicious!  And the GPs get to munch on the raw stalks, so no wastage at all.
Gardening organically on chalky, stony soil.

Waitrose's website has a lovely recipe for swiss chard tart. It's very nice if you cook it at night and let it go cold for lunches in this hot weather.
wistfully hoping to one day be mostly organic gardener in North London.
