Lots of cropping - mange tout, french beans, broad beans, gallons of strawberries, charlotte potatoes and tons of courgettes.

Large hand full of raspberries, they are two weeks earlier than last year. 1/3 carrier of strawberries and ditto of green gooseberries.  A carrier of Broad Beans and a good boiling of peas.  Enough 'Red Duke of York' for tonight  Put 52 garlic bulbs in the polly to dry out.

Just come back with broad beans, peas, potatoes and lettuce./ All looking good and healthy - the spuds a little meagre but many seem to be finding that this year. Borad beans and peas look set for the next couple of weeks and the most recent humid weather seems to suit them. Am going to try a suggestion from elsewhre on this forum of cooking the broad bean tops in some hot butter - sounds good.

BB tops stir-fried in butter were delicious! Consistency of spring greens but a strong bean-y taste that really worked. Sadly, no blackfly on mine so I ground some black pepper over them and pretended!  :tongue2:
