Allotment Harvesting Time

Tomatoes & Peppers



Damsons


Large Pumpkin

Squashes & Pumpkins



New Strawberry Bed


Long Peppers

It's that time of year now for gathering up the crops to store away.
Thankfully we have a good storing shed on the allotment.
Right now it is full of Potatoes, Squashes, Onions and Pumpkins, all ready to use when we want them. Been another good year and despite the "Not Great" Summer we had, things have grown quite nicely. Already made a new Strawberry bed for next year, with runners saved from the existing plants, so they should be established well for next Summer.  Still lots to pick there and the soil to dig over and prepare before the weather becomes too cold and wet.
