Last night I picked my first courgette!!!! Usually giving bags away by now but weather has been so awful I didn't think I would get any so very excited to have one 
Loads of strawberries every day, never had such a good crop before, growing them in pots has been brilliant this year, copper tape round the pots has meant zero slug damage & I haven't had to net them as the birds don't seem to see them. Really easy to pick too.
Got a good crop of Mangetout to pick today & more turnips, chard & lettuces.

16 large ones - that's fab!  Congratulations Deb!  Will you be taking some of these for replanting or buy new ones?

I don't usually save them as they get eaten up pretty quickly, and when I did try saving some to replant they didn't last well and shrivelled up before I had a chance to plant any!

I guess that's why I replant late autumn, but shallots usually keep longer than onions for me.  I always replant the best.  Enjoy your shallots, Deb

This year has been strange. Usually the first ripe tom us a sun gold first week of July. Sadly they are still green but the yellow pears are ripening and I gad the first one today. I'm overrun with gherkins and have been trialing pickling recipes.the king horn French beans did well and I have several loads in the freezer. I'm holding of on the duke of York pots as our local show is in two weeks and the category wants six potatoes so I'm sure I'll get through lots of plants to find six matching ones! The making jewel raspberries have been lovely as have a gorgeous pink flowered strawberry called ROman I've had lots of lovely fruit from these in a pot. I've got more broad beans than I know what to do with but the peas never make it into the house ATM. So despite the current bad weather the warm June is paying dividend here on my irish plot.

Dog "harvested" all the ripe strawberries, leaving just stalk and bit of fruit on plants.
We harvested Chard, Rocket, Spinach and lettuce. So had a lovely feta salad with the last three.
