Just pulling and digging various winter veg this weekend, a quick visit as the sun was setting on a cold winter afternoon. The plot was covered with fallen leaves which next time I will rake up and add to the bag. We can now see the side fence and the field the other side, suddenly everything feels a lot more open as you watch the hundreds of dog walkers do their lap around the field before going back home somewhere warm.
Items taken home:
- carrots (will make a carrot cake)
- turnips
- salsify (rather forked)
- kale
- chard
- a small leek
We have plenty of leeks but not massive big ones, I wonder if it was too hot and dry during the summer for them to bulk up?
