This week’s vlog is back on the allotment and so much has changed in the vegetable garden over the last week! the temeratures have dropped and the winter squash/pumpkin plants have faded away. That means harvesting them so i take home the Marina di Chioggia and Crown Prince squash. Remarkably we are still picking tomatoes, peppers and chillies from the poly tunnel and greenhouse. And dried runner beans for winter too. The next day in the sunshine we manage to get both the covered bed (mini-poly) and the polyhouse (maxi-poly) planted up with Chard, Mustard Greens, Rocket, Pak Choi, Spring Onions, Cima di Rapa and Leaf Chicory. So hopefully we will have plenty to pick over the winter and early spring!
