My, there’s a couple of mighty fine root veg up the page. Wonder if the taste was compromised by their size?
My crops were the usual mixed bag this year. Tomatoes, beans, herb and salad crops were excellent. Beetroots were meh again. Chillies were prolific but sweet peppers yielded only a few fruits from 6 plants. Celeriac is still in the trug, but sadly look like they’ll be no bigger than tennis balls.
Anyways, looks likely I’ll be swapping our small-ish cottage garden in The High Weald for a 3 acre plot down in Pembrokeshire soon. Half of that’s woodland, but I suspect I’ll be ramping up the veg patch and adding a flock of chooks. Our place is under offer and limping along towards exchange/completion, and our bid for a bigger place where we’ll have the mother-in-law live with us was accepted just yesterday (though we aren’t looking to match up sale and purchase on the same day - we’ll aim to squat at the MiL’s current home down near Tenby as an interim measure and, assuming the deals go though, then do some do-er upper work on the new place before we move in).
