I try to provide as much as I can for the table. Ok with soft fruit (freezer one), veg is in freezer 2 as is soup. Also manage with potatoes ( don't eat many) and onions. Am genetically unable to grow carrots.
Following on from the young kids, no money stage of life I weigh everything I harvest and stick 50p per pound in the jar in the kitchen. Covers the cost of running the allotment.
