This week I will mostly be eating my greens ... and reds and blacks :D



Red cabbage (young plants were a gift from Sunshineband  :)), mustard greens, black kale and green cabbage.

As a bonus the chickens have a bag of outer leaves of cabbage to attack tomorrow as well  :)

This morning I've picked some chard (the outside leaves were wilted by frost but the inside ones were fine ;)) a swede, a small Minicole cabbage and a few skinny leeks  :)

Glad the red cabbage grew to an edible size, New Shoot, I shall harvest mine for the Christmas season  :D

Today I had carrots, yes real carrots!!!! After several abortive attempts this year, I planted slug bait with the seeds and now I have Chantenat red cored that are lareg enough to eat, with Autumn Kings to follow  :D :D :D Hurray!!!

Also brought home parsnips, maincrop leeks (Bleau de Solaise), oca and sage to go with the truckey thigh we have for dinner.

Sometimes it is better to keep your mouth shut and be suspected of knowing nothing than opening it and proving it.

They look lovely moose.

Shame there's people around your plot who can't be trusted but, on the other hand, it's a compliment to you (I suppose?) that they thought them the best and worth swiping.  :unsure:
