Thanks for the Tundra recommendation mumofstig. I see you’ve also waxed lyrical about it on on at her thread so I’ll give it a go.

Still got cabbage,  sprouts,  leeks and purple spurters in the ground.  All the other beds are either dug, covered or mulched ready for the spring. Still plenty of jobs to be getting on with on the plot so I will be visiting most weeks through the winter.

Most of my beds covered now after turning them over.
Just garlic growing assuming the rabbits don’t get them!
Ground seriously wet here so I won’t be doing much till it’s drier.
Cheers

Keep digging

I still have sprouts, kale, PSB, leeks, cabbage and chicory in the ground.
Also herb fennel which never ripened and some flat leaf parsley still going.
1 chilli still going in the polytunnel.
Next year's Wizard beans and garlic are poking through.
I have covered a lot of the empty beds in weed suppressant fibre this year and mulched a few others.
Need to have a tidy up, a bonfire and some fence repairs but can't say I am enthusiastic about that in the cold.

About half my beds have been cleared, manure and covered with weed matting fabric. I still have some clearing to do. I usually have more winter veg (including leeks & Savoy cabbages) but this year only have parsnips, parsley, PSB, kale, chard and beetroot still in the ground. Still, am happy with that  :)

I have sprouts, kale, Asturian tree cabbage, purple sprouting broccoli and leeks in the ground. Most of the rest of the beds have been cleared, mostly weeded and covered with manure.
