Sprouts, carrots, parsnips.  Found some potatoes which I had missed amazed they were unaffected by frost damage.  Taste delicious.

Green soup - a bit of everything green available + some potatoes. Cabbage, leeks, mint, peas. Can't remember what else but it certainly cleared a shelf in the fridge!

The last of the butternuts and a small Festival squash. The festivals have improved flavourwise for storage but have developed a really stiff skin.... real effort to break into that one, they weren't that hard  back in November :-)
