July in the garden - fruit and veg

 First strawberries and redcurrants ripening now

 apples swelling











and - this is very exciting - the grapes

dwarf borlotto beans are forcing their way through the earlier sowing of salad leaves

tomatoes are setting

I even have some growing in a hanging basket!

there's a couple of cabbages - which are supposed to be winter crops but look a bit early for that

the red kale that I thought would look attractive among the flowers is being eaten away by slugs and snails

but the red cabbage is looking ok
