Couple of lettuces and a courgette harvested for tea this evening. It's so satisfying growing you own food ๐Ÿ™‚

Your courgettes are ahead of mine, another week or so before we get to eat any. ๐Ÿ™‚

Didn't start til late this year as moved house.

Got apples, blackberries, broad beans, runner beans, peas, aubergines, cucumbers, peppers, chillies, tomatoes, strawberries, artichokes, spinach, rocket and radichio all merrily growing away. Next year it'll be more, LOADS more ๐Ÿ™‚

Whats even better is cooking/preparing your produce on a table next to where you grew them and then eating your feast there too. Preferably with muddy hands!

already had peas, the courgettes should be good to go in a day or so. Plenty of salad, land cress, rocket, lettuce, chard, beet, that sort of thing already done. Pumpkins are already starting to swell and i have a handful of lemons developing but they are still a few months off picking.
