Has now gone, but we are still harvesting. there has ben an abrupt weather change, plunging us into autumn. My thoughts tend towards he clearing and tidying - not that I have had a chance to do it yet.
The grapes are ready - lovely! Loads of peppers and toms still, but only a few aubergines left. Still harvesting some potatoes, though the crop not been so good this year. All the cucurbits a total washout. time for our fab pear harvest too. a few beans sill, bt a bit nippy now
[guess what our current glut is!] Actually, it surprised me how very much tomato makes how little dried tomato in oil!! Hopefully will be lovely.
Also still harvesting french and runner beans, peppers and aubergines, with stored onions to use too - very Italian!! Our pears nearly ready…
Oh, and our grapes are ready!!! woohooo
Beans all still going strong. Have been batch freezing both french and runner beans for the winter months. We are also eating them every day.
A smattering of carrots and sweetcorn - mostly to keep the girls happy.
Chris harvested pink fir apples today for tea, so potato crop not as good as we would have liked, but at least still there!
oh, and I harvested 2kg of red toms today - so made red tomato chutney - yummy. The first sweet peppers turning red. goody.
