It's been awhile since I've posted any updates about Site 1. Rest assured, we haven't abandoned our efforts there. In fact we've been busy harvesting and most stuff seems to be doing really well.
All the potatoes from the main barrow have been lifted, as have the onions. The carrots are still going strong and are now starting to be quite big. The taste of them is amazing - having never grown carrots before, we can't get over how much better they taste compared to shop-bought ones which are insipid in comparison.
The runner beans are consistently providing plenty of pods each visit and I'm having to now freeze them as we are in danger of glut.
sweetcorn are doing very well. Lots of cobs which should be ready to begin picking by the end of the month
the cauliflower have started to develop
a little sad that the potato barrow is now empty and onions all lifted as this signifies the start of the gradual "closing down" of our section of Deb and Dan's plot
