Picking pears
Harvesting the first of the potatoes for storage. We have been eating them since June, but now it is time to lift them and let thm harden off on the surface for a few hours, and then store them , for use in the winter months.
Harvesting the Lavender, for use in soaps and lotions and potions.
Some of the Onions, lifted (finally!) It has been SO wet we have not been able to and were really worried they would rot in the ground...)
More Onions, a tray of shallots ( really good crop this year!) and the first of the pumpkins!
Plums. Lots of them. We have called in friends to come and pick the surplus!
What a beautfiul harvest! And, BTW, my ten year old son walks around singing "Marvellous Compost Bin" all day. It's hilarious! Thanks for the great blog!
