A short row of parsnips... because they were starting to produce new shoots ALREADY!
I wasn't expecting that to happen until end of Feb. Very very odd weather!
And the last of the beetroots got dug up too....

Leeks, sprouts, parnsips, carrots.

What I did notice on an adjacent plot was someone with peas 1 foot high in flower!  :ohmy:

Strange weather.

Yep, next plot has all his raspberries in flower.

A large Ormskirk cabbage that I shared with my plot neighbour & some parsnips ready for my rib of beef for tomorrows dinner.

A January King cabbage
Some leeks
Some mustard greens that have survived the winter under a cloche
Some PSB and had to chuck a couple of plants that have bolted already  :ohmy:
Some bolted spring cabbage for the chickens - what is going on with the weather this year  ::)
...... and the most pathetic crop of turnips I have ever seen, rescued from under another cloche  :lol:

Dug out the last of the parsnips, which was quite a task in frozen ground.  Also harvested 5 leeks and a nice cabbage.  Picked some of the Austrian winter radish I had growing.  Hmm. might not bother with these again, as pathetic as my normal radishes.
