[Snow]

Lots of salad leaves and herbs.

Monday I picked another load of asparagus, perhaps just as well some plants don’t seem to have made it through the winter  , I know 6of the 18 were a later variety but I’d have thought there would be signs of it by now

A day or two before a daily harvest: the first of my courgettes for the year (yellow crookneck).
Zucchini are not far behind.

Another picking of asparagus.

[New shoot]

Combined efforts of plot and raised beds at home.

A mix of greens and herbs - asparagus, sea kale, kale, lovage, garlic chives and Greek oregano.

More greens - chard and spinach

Rhubarb - forgot to take a photo before I chopped it up, so this is the cooked results

First courgettes harvested.

Disclaimer: this is not my harvest.

My oldest son now works on an organic farm. Today, he is travelling early in the morning to go to a farmers market in Atlanta.

Weekly, he brings us beautiful produce from the farm that they cannot sell. Given away to the farm workers! These  are some tomatoes and a cucumber that he brought to us yesterday. The largest tomato weighs more than a pound.

Not pictured here, but a week ago, he brought us a huge (1 pound, 11.7 ounce) lumpy and nearly black tomato that was a deep garnet color inside, flecked with green.  It fed four of us and was the best tomato I have ever eaten.

Harvested yellow grape tomatoes, crookneck squash, snow peas and rhubarb.

More crookneck, plus zucchini.

Thursday…… drum roll
Strawberries  
The first ones this year if you ignore thr 4 hubby “stole” the night before when I left him in charge of the watering & chickens and below is the evidence
Not many but shared equally (Mr S if you’re listening!) each berry cut in half & we each had 1 half 
Oh and more asparagus with the purple coming into play now, just 2 spears but since I thought I’d lost that row of 6 plants it’s a start

[vikingraider]

Had my first few sugar snap peas

[snowdrops]

First of a dozen cabbages I bought, planted 6 in the tunnel & 6 outside on the same day
Can you tell which of them I’ve harvested today 

[New shoot]

Huge bag of spinach, plus the first few mangetout and some herbs.  The spinach is determined to bolt and I am determined to keep it down by picking it really hard.  So far I have won, but it is only a matter of time now 

[Subversive_plot]

Still harvesting a load of zucchini and yellow crookneck squash, as well as the last of the snow peas.  The snow peas will likely continue but decline in quality this week as the weather gets warmer.  The first of the Stupice tomatoes have been harvested, and still getting yellow grape tomatoes daily.
