Runner beans, 2 green courgettes, 4 patty pan squashes, a few peas, purple podded peas, French beans and broad beans.  Lots of purple carrots and a few orange ones.  Lots of cucumber. Loads of blackberries and raspberries.   

Finally, and with much fanfare, my first 2 cobs of sweetcorn, eaten for lunch.  First successful attempt in 3 years of trying.

Took 2 grandsons to the 'lotment after church to dig up 1 or 2 veggies for their Beavers and Cubs special Harvest Festival later today. Well, they have helped (?) grow them. So up came a few lovely carrots, onions and beetroot. Clean forgot to suggest runner beans.  :(

last night I picked all the spuds I had been growing in straw, I went down just before dusk hoping no 1 would be around to see my disaster but actually there were far more spuds than I could ever have imagined. 15kg from 5 rows of 8 spuds.

The best bit is the ground underneath is completely cleared! I'm going to plonk some kale in the undug ground with a bulb planter when I get a chance.

Pictured: a handful of beans (mostly blue lake and the last 2 or 3 purple teepee), my SECOND yellow courgette, some tiny chillis (numex twilight, small but powerful!) and 2 unripe chillis (golden cayenne, cut off by accident), 2 unknown long green peppers (from a mixed seed packet), and four varieties of tomato (1 x garden peach, 2 x tiny tim, 4 x brown berry, 12 currant sweet pea)

Also, a colander-full of red-veined sorrel and a second collander full of lettuce from a replanted supermarket live-salad tray!

Oh, and on Friday, this rather cute yellow pepper (mini-bell yellow)
