yes mate!! from a John Seymour book http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Complete-Book-Self-Sufficiency-Realists/dp/0751364428
Now there's a thought. I've got quite a few parsnips still in the ground, probably a bit woody by now, would they still be OK for a drop of wine?

variety unknown that I keep seed from each year. (these perform better than purchased seed)
Tony how many parsnips do you keep and allow to go to seed? I quite fancy doing that as I would know the seed is fresh.

2 or 3 plants supplies me with loads of seed.(too much) just re-plant a couple of parsnips somewhere on your plot, water them in, and let them flower! they have an umbellifer type flower, and are ripe for harvest late summer.
Thanks Tony, I definitely will have a go at this :)
How did the wine turn out Tony?
I sowed extra seeds after reading your first post and only 2 parsnips grew :(
