Harvesting, planting & more bumper harvests!

I'll start with this trug full of goodies: 
Potatoes, 
Mixed Berries, 
Peas, 
Beans 
& Sweet Pea flowers.
We also picked the last of the cauliflowers, so dug up the roots & composted them, then planted more that we had started off in a seed tray. 
They are Autumn Giant.
5lb of Gooseberries! 
Jo made a great job of weeding around the leeks & beetroot.
And these asters needed weeding too.
The strawberries are almost done fruiting and sending out runners, so we pegged each into a small pot of compost, we will cut them away from the parent plant when rooted.
Another trug full of goodies.
The path got a trim, but sadly my petrol strimmer wouldn't work, so I got busy with the shears, was hard work but worth it as it looks a lot better.
And another trug full of delicious produce and our 1st carrot too.

Thanks for reading/returning. Ian & Jo.
