season of plenty

i don't blog about the allotment much as i figure it won't be of much interest to most readers but following our first year last year we have got our act together a bit better. this is the season of plenty - this photo is one day's gleaning of around 15 different fruit and veg. we work the allotment as a group which makes it manageable with our friend lynda taking the lead.

for my own benefit (memory) i use my blog to record things so when i look back i have a record... so this year's efforts

strawberries | raspberries | blackberries | blackcurrants | rhubarb | plums | potatoes | onions | garlic | carrots | spinnach | beetroot | parsley | tomatoes | cucumber | courgette | basil | aubergine | dwarf beans | runner beans | mange tout peas | chilli | jalapeno pepper | pepper | sweetcorn... and yet to come... cabbage | parsnip (only one successful plant this year!) | swede | leeks | squash

we normally get an organic fruit and vegetable box delivered each week but at this time of year we don't have to bother...
