Celeriac, jerusalem artichokes, leeks, carrots - poached with chicken [ a Valentine Warner recipe] and potatoes. Lady Balfour potatoes make good mash and they are storing well so far.
Could have done something with the quince for a pudding, but didn't have time so that will have to wait for another day!

Leek, sprouts, carrots, parsnips, something of a challenge digging them up.  The robin was pleased that there was a little soil turned over.
