French beans, toms and half a cabbage (my one and only, previously known as 'the sacrificial cabbage' or 'the slug hotel'  ::)).  :)

Picked a few autumn raspberries (actually they picked themselves as I wasn't really expecting to have any this early and they fell off the plant!)

More sugarsnap peas (getting near the end now.)

Still lifting Lady Christl spuds - relatively few but large, as well they should be after all this time.

Strawberries still coming slowly but steadily (haven't stopped since early June!)

First tomato from greenhouse, which is also my first ever Sungold - rather small but very tasty.

Still waiting for first courgette and first runner beans, but should be picking in a day or so.  :)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Globe artichoke. :)

Still lifting Lady Christl spuds here too, more to come today hopefully if it dries up a bit. More rainbow chard today too, it is growing like mad which I'm happy about. First few tomatoes will ripen for picking in the next few days if the sun shines.

Globe artichoke. :)

 Enjoy it  ;)

I've picked a small Golden Nugget squash that had decided to ripen unexpectedly, a handful of runners, a Tromba d'Albenga courgette/squash/thingy  :blink: and 5 raspberries :blush:

Hope so. :) It was the only one on that plant. Three more coming on one of the other plants, none so far on the third remaining plant, but it is very small..

Another huge bag of runner beans (now in the freezer)

Dug all the second early potatoes:

8kg kestrel
8kg Sarpo Una
8kg Nadine

All were from 8 seed potatoes of each, so very pleased

Blackberries, tayberries, a golden ball head cabbage, a small bowl of shiny red onions left over from a sowing of salad onions and a huge bunch of flowers, including some of our red and maroon dahlias  :D

Lunch came entirely from the garden (if you ignore the bread roll and cheese I added later)! Last of the broad beans mixed with white onion and chives, the first of my most recently sown radishes (planted only 2-and-a-half weeks ago!!) and a mixed salad of red-veined sorrel (first time I've grwon this and I love it), little gem, lollo rosso, rocket, and flat-leaf parsley.

:)

On Saturday we had broad beans, courgettes, runner beans, peas, carrots, chilli peps, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and calabrese. (The spuds were for Sunday, as this was all in a stir fry, well the veg was...)
