Absolutely delicious tuscan kale and runner beans, and some fresh herbs to add to my home made hollandaise mmmmmmmmmmmmm

And for lunch a nice chunky cucumber and marmite sandwich.

courgettes ...dwarf french beans, some japanese red spring onions (sorry, senior moment cant remember the name but they are lovely), sungold tomatos, a whopper of a legend tomato, shallots.  Dug out a few onions that look like they have the dreaded white rot.....praying that the rest that look ok will survive until i can dig them up and dry them when the sun comes out again .

My first four tomatoes picked last evening. They are Totem, not necessarily the most tasty, but I live in hope. Oh, and because with with bush tomatoes it's so difficult to see what you're doing I picked a plump green 'un by mistake too!

Last night I picked three courgettes with plenty more to come.  Today - cukes, toms, lots more radish and spring onions. (I am going to pretend that I do not see that courgette lurking under the leaves.)

Salad things: three crystal lemons, two little gem and the best sized spring planted garlic clove yet. Plus another red onion - I'm just pulling these (and the spring garlic) as I need them and my they're going fast! The spring planted garlic is extremely disappointing, I don't know whether to bother with it again or has the weather spoilt its growing too?

My first ever cauliflower!

Two iceberg lettuce and a bucket of Charlotte spuds for my Charlotte

My first ever cauliflower!

Wahey!

At last....I have tomatoes. I was starting to worry I was being left behind. Sungold and one Incas which fell off into my hand, a bit underripe.


Still very cucumber heavy. I thought one plant wouldn't be enough!


More rhubarb.


And beans, salad leaves and land cress.

[snowdrops]

2 more courgettes from the self sets (still none from the carefully grown ones!) & 6 globe artichokes that my daughter & I tried with some vinaigrette & some aioli

[troubrs]

Came back from 2 weeks holiday to find & harvest (under the weeds!) Courgettes, courgettes run to marrows, a massive carrier bag of french beans, runner beans, onions, spring onions, lettuce, huge tub of raspberries, cucumber, the first tomatoes, the last new potatoes, spinach, beetroot, carrots, cabbages. Plus my plum tree at home is so laden a huge branch broke off & I received a lovely big jar of plum jam made with them from a neighbour who was feeding our cats while we were away! Now to pickle, freeze, store & eat!

[tosca100]

Errrmmm, just a few beans!

[mumofstig]

My first ripe beefsteak tom and a couple of red peppers that are stuffed and roasting as we 'speak'.

Serving with just picked runner beans and some of the Ambo spuds dug up yesterday.

I love this time of year
