Picked this week - 24th November 2013

 Well, this week we had the first hard frost and a heavy hail shower that left ice lying around, so I think it's safe to say winter's arrived.












I was astounded then to find raspberries still ripening at the allotment - expected them to have turned to mush



..and here's another surprise, found when we pulled out the bean row. A bit nibbled by grubs but hopefully a dinner's worth of potatoes.

    1. These raspberry canes were already on the allotment when we took over - and they're wonderful. It's such a delight to have fresh raspberries at this time of year :)

    1. Sadly the grub holes proved to be too many. If only we'd lifted them sooner.....
