By 'eck they are strong! Eyes watering like I had the strongest onion on my chopping board.  Leek & potato soup with all my own produce was boootiful.

Also picked achocha, toms, a courgette, borlotti beans, trail of tears beans, padron peppers and chillies.

Sill digging my spuds up. Tried a different variety this year - "Amour".

Imagine my surprise!



Getting around 7 lbs of spuds off most plants and they're as clean as a whistle.

Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Here is most of today's harvest which is for the West Yorkshire Organics show tomorrow.   

I picked a monster beetroot (Dobbie's Purple) which is allegedly still tender when huge, carrots (2 sorts), kale, leaf beet, courgettes, runner beans, french beans, a lovely Palivec chilli pepper, Amy sweet pepper, cucumber, tomatoes, parsnip, kohlrabi, fennel and a red cabbage.   

Adding red onions, shallots and garlic, plus blackcurrant jam, runner bean pickle and cider apple butter and that's my entry for tomorrow.   Mercifully the produce is tested on taste and not on how it looks like!

Awesome cauli Luke, and DD- what a whopper!
Spinach, raps, strawbs, fat babies, runners, beets & cues.

Just checking in here because; is it ok to curse under your breath when you've spotted YET another lurking cucumber?  It seems so ungrateful, but I used 10 in pickle this week, given another 10 away and have now another 8/10/12 who knows in the garage fridge  :wacko:  :wub:

Hey, I'm growing my own herbs and chillies. Last night I picked two handfuls of chilli peppers out of four plants. I'm really glad I planted those. :)
Growing your own food is amazing!

Loads of toms for me too - and loads more to come both indoors and out. And couple of tiddler cukes.  :)
