Raspberries, carrots, mangetout and turnips for today's dinner.   

[diospyros]

Picked, podded and put in freezer another kilo of field beans, plus the ones we had for tea.  Nearly half a centimetre of grot pushed back under my thumb-nail, ouch.  Last minute dash up the plot in the middle of the tennis to get parsley for sauce for the beans!  Plus a large handful of Shiraz mange tout which have survived somehow in the back garden scrambling up the miscanthus, stir fried for tea.

27kg sack of kestrel spuds and some massive onions

Do you struggle to get the black bean grot off your hands?
It's like a dye on my skin!

Just collected the following this morning
Spuds, beet root, lettuce, courgettes& broad beans.
Surprised the keel slug who was half way into one of the large potatoes I am afraid he was extracted and dispatched !!

Cheers HH

Blackcurrants.  Lots of blackcurrants.  First peas - didn't make it back home.  Some spuds and some chard, spinach and kale.

More mangetout and raspberries, the broad beans(sown late!) are nearly ready 

[beesrus]

In amongst the ongoing potatoes, onions, rapberries etc, guess what ?!
My first parsnip of the season, and what a lovely large specimen it is too. I shall be eating it shortly. 9 July is a record for me for outdoor parsnips. With the weather we've had, this year's crop will be the earliest and biggest ever. If they keep growing like this, I will still be eating them the Mid Winter after next.

2kg of blackcurrants from one Ben Connan plant, and that was only about 2 thirds of the bush!  I now have acheing shoulders from topping and tailing them all.  Raspberries, strawberries, gooseberries, peas, onions, lettuce and field beans and 1 small yellow chilli pepper.
