Here are the Autumn Raspberries still cropping well and the fruits are huge, we expect them to keep going well into September or even early October.
Today's harvest was another 1.5 lb, which we have Frozen for later use.
Tomatoes 'Plum & Alicante'
Climbing French & Runner Beans
Potatoes 'Markies'
& Sweet Peas flowers.
We also harvest Weeds for our Chickens, Hetty, Betty, Peggy & Maud.
Here you can see them tucking into 'Chickweed' one of their favorites. But they also love Kale, Pak-Choi, Cabbage & Broccoli, we grow extra just for them. Makes lovely golden yellow yolks.
I dug some up for tonight's dinner, this amount I got from 2 plants, so the yield is quite good, just wish they were a bit bigger, but dry conditions are to blame.
Thanks for reading/returning. Ian.
A good haul :)
ReplyDeleteOoooh! I love raspberries - definitely something to consider for the future! Thankyou for the tips about the potatoes :-) Love 'n' hugs, Mel xx
ReplyDeleteDid not realise that leaving the potatoes in the ground a week or so will help with crispy skins - thanks!
