Three JoanJ raspberries - finished now - and one Cavili courgette which is still producing long after two other varieties finished! All yesterday, today it's bucketing down. Raised beds all manured and covered now for the winter.
Time to watch the birds and twiddle my thumbs  :coffee2:.

Just noticed - today's post reflects my year of birth!

Almost certainly the last courgettes, although I have left a couple of plants in just in case, purple Cauli.   :wave:

New potatoes!!
I was very late planting the taters this year and am very late digging them up. I cut the tops off when blight was on the go late summer and am now digging up.
Fantastic crop of Charlotte which are just like new taters. Even Mr PKL is eating them after a scrub, that means they are ok. Hope Mr Curmudgeon is on the plot for me to tell him as he's thrown  all his Charlotte s away for the last two years  :glasses9:

Kestrel pots, curly kale, a couple of little gems and some beetroot. Thought about a swede but didn't want to start them too early.

Florence fennel, leeks, cabbage, Tuscan kale, swedes, turnips, chard, mooli radish.

It's so good to have your own veg even in winter.

The fennel didn't like the frosts - not sure how useable it will be. I'll know to lift it next time, it keeps well.

Paulh, quite envious.  I only harvested kale today.  I wanted chard too, but some animal has eaten all my chard tops between yesterday and today.  And the beetroot tops although there weren't many of those left :BangHead:

They'll resprout, but I will have to cloche them.  Never had that happen before.  Deer? 

Fortunately the kales are untouched.  But I will have to net those too, only a matter of time before the pigeons discover them.  Also plentiful in the garden are leeks and celery, landcress and turnips (under cloches).   And I have yet to dig up the oca under the cloches

But we had onions, garlic, marrow, peas and tomatoes from stores and from the freezer for dinner too.  Lettuce etc in the greenhouse are still looking good and still growing slowly.   :wave:

Red Cabbage, parsnips and a bucket full of brussels to freeze. I have never had a year as good as this with brussels. All my brassicas are of the club resistant varieties.
