Autumn on the plot

Hi everyone!  We've been very busy on the plot recently, saying goodbye to all of our sunshine crops and starting afresh with a new rotation for autumn and winter.


Here's a pic of one of our new beds that have some new blackcurrant canes in (thanks Bill!) and lots of the lovely allium family at the back. We have Senshyu yellow Japanese onions, Jermor shallots, Electric red onions and French thermidrome garlic as our allium autumn varieties in for overwintering, bring on June!

Here's our plucky globe artichoke plant which has grown considerably since it arrived from Katy this summer. Here it is all tucked in to keep it safe from the frost (eek! not yet please!)

Yum, blackcurrant jelly this summer please!

Our new layout, we have planted some spring bulbs in the front for some early colour.

Little Electra leeks - getting stronger so fingers crossed for a few later in the season! K&C
