More kale shoots but I did eat the first Tom Thumb lettuce from my indoor garden, it was small but it was good and great to get something fresh. Microgreens will be ready in about a week.

Tempted to pick  the early ruhubarb stalks bit talked myself out of it

Daubertons kale and a few chives. Very nice accompaniment to dinner!

some cabbage, before they bolt. Cut and put in the fridge in the shed... keep for several weeks longer than outside.

Kale, sprouting kale, leeks, lambs lettuce, celery and endive.  Together with stored squash and nearly the last frozen peas, I'll call it dinner. 

Very oddly, when I cleared up the patch of nettles behind the shed, I spotted several apples that had rolled into the nettles -  still useable.  Apples in April?  have to think what's for sweet course.  :wave:

A couple of bird pecks Saddad, no slug damage.  A bit of rot too, but made a  nice compote microwaved with butter and sugar for OH and he sprinkled grape nuts cereal over it for a bit of crunch :wave:

Just about finished the last BNS, picked a small savoy, some PSB and some straggly leeks.  Going to be a hungry month!
Moved to Portugal - ain't going back!

My indoor kale  is harvesting nicely along with lettuces and assorted micro greens so my out door kale plants have been pulled out. I picked two small tomatoes of a Micro Gemma plant today also and  really weird find when cleaning out the green house..I found a couple of  Sungold tomatoes, very tiny laid on a raised bed which had somehow survived the winter..overwintered Sungolds maybe I should sow them!!

I have nothing else left outside now, just small things under lights

The fennel has survived.  We had fennel shoots for the first time this year.  Also the three-cornered leek is growing very fast.  Still a couple of squashes left.  Had half a trombo squash yesterday.  Lots of salad greens from the greenhouse, lamb's lettuce, cress, land cress and rocket, but the 'real' lettuces are still very small.  :wave:

Oh forgot - 4 short but nice thick stalks of rhubarb - first this year  :sunny:

Sorrel for omelettes, and some accidentally broken off rhubarb, plus herbs such as lovage, parsley, mint, fennel, three cornered leek and its flowers, tarragon.
