Winter Crops

The beds are still quite full of winter crops. Above is spring cabbage planted through membrane in an attempt to keep the weeding down to a minimum.


Our Swedes are looking good although some are quite cylindrical rather than round. Never mind, they all will taste just grand when cooked.


We use lots of celeriac. Its grand mashed with spuds or added to stews. Ours are bulking up fabulously now.

These tomatiloes are not a winter veg but as they are in the tunnel they will be harvested for another few weeks or until the frosts finally come. We have used them to make a proper Mexican salsa today and mighty fine it tastes too. A good job as we now have 6lb in jars to last through till next year with a lot more to come.
