A quick trip to the allotment for carrots this morning and due to the hard frost my dwarf beans are no over but the Swiss chard still bonny and bright, will Swiss chard keep going all winter?

Yep it should do, albeit likely to slow down. My 2 x 4m beds are producing ~7lbs a week still.

As rowan 57 said they'll be ok.

I've got about 20 plants ,I think they will last till about feb /march with regular cropping.
