Hi from Somerset

[JakZoy]

Just signed up as I'm now the proud tenant of a totally overgrown allotment. I've spent two days strimming and also today I dug up a bunch of parsnips that have been in the ground a little longer than perhaps normal! Still a lot to do but I'm determined!!!

I'm hoping to plant some (dwarf) fruit trees at the back and the rest will be spuds, carrots, onions, herbs, etc., that's if I can get anything planted this year!!!

Still got a load more parsnips to harvest but they've survived this far and I'm thinking soup/curry/wine once I get them out of the ground!

So ... hi everyone

Parsnips are LUSH! Great in a curried soup.
