I'm pretty much worked through my plot as well, but came home with some leeks  :)

Brought home the tops of the Cavolo Nero plants which are really flower heads and finishing. Plus a small handful of PSB (although most of my PSB plants are still growing leaves not flowers).

I think my leeks are breeding behind my back. I thought I'd lifted them all from three beds, but another three or four have suddenly appeared.

Yesterday I lifted some Nantes carrots (Wikes builders bucket) and found about 60% were ruined by beetle lava, not sure of the species but they are about twice the size of the average Weevil type, I had forgotten about them and should have lifted much sooner, oh well, Dave
Today i will be mainly wearing no trousers

Yes, I'll be picking the first few stalks of rhubarb too this weekend.

still got the odd leek plant growing but am going to pull them up and put them in a bucket of water to stay fresh as I want to dig over the patch they occupy. Also found a couple of parsnips that I'd missed when I rough dug the patch a couple of weeks ago

Spring onions (over wintered in the cold frame).  Leeks (still going strong), I'll need to look up storage for these as I need the ground soon.  Last savoy cabbages only good enough for the chickens now.  The last of the celeriac 6 roots.

Dug up the last of White Gem Parsnips, been another great year for them.
Three colander loads of spinach, reducing some of the plants to get some new started.
Last of the  Chantenay Red Carrots from the pots, pulled up ready for a new sowing.

I froze some of mine successfully last year, didn't blanch them either,was good to be able to add handful to stews & casseroles during the summer, I also did the same with the parsnips

I picked a huge bunch of cheerfulness narcissi to take home.  The scent is wonderful, and they were my reward for three hours of digging and rotovating.
