massive spring onions (that were left by accident over winter) and rhubarb, and lettuce.  Nice to be getting my own stuff again.

First cucumber I've ever grown :)

Congrats! It's a lovely feeling.  :)

Thanks, and it is. It has far exceeded my expectations, I never thought I'd crave cucumber!

The idea of nibbling on a bit of cucumber as a snack would have never appealed to me in the past, the thought of it being so watery and tasteless is sickly. Yet I'm trying to avoid finishing this one off so my vegan sister can have the last bit, it's so bizarre and amazing how different it is from shop bought ones.

While waiting yesterday for hubby and florence to get home i popped up and pulled five beautiful turnips. On the way out one of the old boys stopped and admired them, he was very impressed as they were like something out of a magazine.  :D turnip mash was had for tea and rather yummy it was too

Four radish and two lettuce
All the way from my allotment in beautiful Derbyshire. I'm in year 3 of my allotment and wish I'd caught the bug years ago, things growing from strength to strength

Rather than throw last years soil and leave the pots empty all winter I mixed in some onion feed, threw some onions in and left them to it. I needed the containers to pot on some chillies today so pulled the onions and gave them a good clean.

So today's harvest are some stunted looking onions, but for re-purposed potting mix during the unproductive cold season they're ok. Will go in some meals over the next couple of days.
