The last three courgettes from what has been an exceptional crop. We planted four seedlings at a rather earlier stage than would have been ideal, but they all thrived. At times I was taking bagfuls to my knitting group to give away. This last week we finally called it a day, and made the last of the soup.
A handful of runner beans, enough for our supper. Again, a record season, starting in July and still there are flowers on the plants.
Beetroot chutney made with our own onions, beetroot and windfall apples. Yesterday, I made up the green tomatoes into chutney, which is already labelled and shelved.
One of the huge windfall apples from the abandoned plot next door. It seems a shame to let them waste.
And yesterday we lifted our main crop potatoes, always a strenuous but satisfying job. Not a huge crop, although the individual tubers were of a good size.
A really productive year.
