My first ever harvest . . .

. . . if you don't count cut and come again salad leaves and a glut of rocket and coriander - these are the first things I've ever grown from seed and actually pulled out of the soil:

Furthermore, I have my first tomato on the way, look:

(Look harder - it's there, right in the centre!)

I'm grinning like a loon!

Hey, your tomato harvest is about as big as mine is at the moment!! Its great when the things you plant produce edible stuff isn't it?!

I wouldn't eat the tomato yet!

Silly thing is, this was one of the plants that wasn't looking so fit and healthy so I didn't plant it out, just left it in the greenhouse to see what happened.

Now I know - way-haaay!

Fabulous stuff, it's so exciting when it works! Apart from the half a pound or so of strawbs a day, we had our first bit of veg harvest for tea - four mini broad bean pods and a purple dwarf french bean in fajitas (with some other stuff, obviously!) - so chuffed!

Although I did find six good sized desiree spuds last week under some "volunteers" that appeard in last years spud bed... Lovely mash they made too - I'd almost forgotten how much more potatoey home grown ones were
