Leeks, cabbage (though they do need lifted now), autumn king, parsnip, sprouts (small),  Swede - well chuffed really  :D. Tatties are storing well so far as are the smaller onions and shallots.  Overall, been a great carrot year.

Taken over neglected veg garden at new home. Enemy number 1 Ground Elder. Then there is the furry terror - bunnies - to contend with!
Made a start have beds established but moved in too late for serious planting. We shall see what 2015 brings.

On the plot we have parsnips, leeks, one large swiss chard, spring cabbage.

In storage we have garlic, potatoes and a couple of what I *think* are Shark Fin somethingorother which I was given in exchange for some marrows.

Not a massive amount but we've still had a reasonable year.

Leeks, savoy cabbage, Tuscan kale with purple sprouting broccoli to look forward to in March.

The rest is in store or the freezer.   Nearly finished the onions though, which is a bit early, they didn't do so well this year.

Sprouts still not harvested but looking lovely and firm last week. Going tomorrow to pick some. PSB still growing. Leeks still quite small so waiting patiently. Plenty of potatoes still in storage and plenty of fruit in freezer.  :)

Today's haul -- parsnips, sprouts, cavelo nero, red curly kale, and a couple of lettuces.

Plus one very wet pair of trousers as I forgot the waterproof ones at home on the stair banisters  :lol: :lol:
