Throw them my way if you have a glut of courgettes.... very thin on the ground here.  :blink:

All the spuds seem to have come at once :ohmy:

So we have a sack of Juliettes a sack of the first earlies, and a sack of Charlottes.

 Chantanay carrots, spring onions, many courgettes, from which I do not want a break, French beans, flat beans, runner beans and a mean handful of tomatoes which have been pants this year :(

Lots of blackberries.

A punnet of sungold of tomatoes (the small kind you get strawberries in from the supermarket).

A handful of runner beans, they have finally started to be fruitful.

More courgettes....

Two dressing gown pocket fulls of peas which pretty much concludes the pea harvest.

A load if super chilli F1.

Tried a first black berry but it wasn't quite ready  :wacko:

H  :)

P.s. how could I forget, my very first kabuki calabrese head, I was so excited I hadnt noticed they had grown so!

Harvested  Rasberries,Runner beans,Potatoes,Beetroot,French beans,salad onions, Carrots and one plum all very satisfying, sadly my outdoor tomatoes all seem to be affected by blight which is running riot in our area.
Retired but never short of a job.

Yesterday I harvested Onions, Shallots, runner beans, peas, spinach, damsons and blackberries - then went home and had my first attempt at making jam with the blackberries and damsons! Had some of the blackberry jam with toast this morning  :happy:

Lots more rainbow chard, 2 courgettes and 4 minipop, with 2 more of them waiting in the wings. At least they're not ripening singly this year, just at the moment. ::)

My first tomato - do not know weather nature took its course or whether the banana skins that I threw in the GH helped.  (And some other things as well - but they are not as important as my tomato).  :lol:

My first tomato -

Well done Springlands. :) That's a week earlier than my first one last year, but I've (somehow, amazingly) beaten you by a week this year.  :lol:

3lb of tomatoes (why do they all come at once?), bag of salad potatoes, some french beans, 2 cucumbers, first ripe pepper of the year, and various salads, radish and spring onions. Very modest haul, but as it's all been grown on a small balcony I am very happy!

A lovely round courgette (first one), and 3 more beans. Ate them with our tea, sliced with olive oil and pepper.
