welcome to my little suburban oasis, filled with flowers,fruit trees and vegetables

Monday 7 October 2013

Picked this week - 6th October 2013


autumn fruits - blackberries, grapes, raspberries and, amazingly, strawberries










 and, of course, apples - quite a lot, all of a good size but marked by bugs



lots and lots of cucumbers






some green peppers


and some red











 continuing to clear outdoor tomatoes as soon as they're big enough to pick


though indoor cherry tomatoes are still ripening

I've cleared most of the remaining cobs of corn this week and also collected some smaller ones to add to stir fries












 a solitary courgette




 out first squash of this year - not very large and not really the right shape for a butternut variety














french and borlotto beans to dry









runner beans to freeze










 ..and more..












and a few more late-cropping broad beans













spinach - self-set amongst the cabbage but cropping really well







and last but not least, a cabbage
