Had my first allotment "dinner" tonight. Potatoes and peas with a bit of mint from the allotment with a piece of salmon (obviously not from the allotment!).
I really didn't think when we took over the extremely overgrown plot at the end of February that we would be eating our own produce in the summer. We are also starting to get broad beans, spring onions, radishes, beetroot and courgettes coming through.

congratulations, long may it continue ;D

Well done :) It's a great feeling isn't it ;D. We've not managed a `meal' yet but we did dig up the first of our tatties to give to the in-laws at the weekend!

We had ours today as well. Lamb chops with allotment grown potatoes, peas, french beans, carots and cabbage. It was all mmmmmmmmmmm. Like you I am really pleased as we have only had the lottie since March this year. This is a picture of what I brought back today.<a href="http://s902.photobucket.com/albums/ac225/Chippyqueen/?action=view¤t=moreproduce005.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i902.photobucket.com/albums/ac225/Chippyqueen/moreproduce005.jpg" border="0" alt="Todays harvest">[/url]
