  • Today I Mostly Harvested....!

    May I bring this particular thread back to the forum?, because I enjoyed it SO very much previously, and it was, and is, a thread started by Two Sheds, who invented it.

    What have you grown that you have harvested and have put on your plate today to eat?

    It's as brilliant, and as simple as that.... and all you have to do is tell us all......

    So:

    Today, Wellie and Trousers picked loads of fresh leaves for salad for dinner with new local lottie friends who came for dinner tonight AND just enough ripe Strawberries to soak in Calvados for pudding.

    You?

              Yesterday, a strawberry! (First year for new plants) Some Anya spuds - enough for 2 meals for 2 and the last from the big tub that took 3 seed potatoes.
              Today I will be picking a few mangetout and broad beans to go with our dinner. Might go get a handful of the black tuscany kale that's doing so well it's shoving the top off the pigeon protecting mesh.

                Yesterday I managed to harvest a handfull of strawberries selflessly leaving some for visitors on Friday evening One titchy carrot and a few Rosabelle potatoes that fell foul of the bleddy moles and over enthusiastic earthing up

                Wellie, is it just that, soak strawberries in calvados or is it a bit more complicated? If it is the latter please can I have the recipe - sounds yummy.

                    It's so nice to be getting a bit more than chard and cabbages now. Yesterday, I harvested radishes, little gem lettuce, broad beans (first of the year - hurrah!), strawberries, and a single backcurrant (which wasn't quite a ripe as I thought it was, and was a bit sharp).

                        Broad beans, spring onions, the first baby carrots (thrilled there was something beneath all that green) and rocket. Strawberries a few days ago Mmmmm yummy.

                          Today I picked a few winter onions, couple of cabbages (they were all looking a little squashed), broad beans, lettuce (for a neighbour), a few strands of rocket and thyme. Yesterday I had a couple of strawberries.

                            Harvested the first of the overwintering garlic today, the first batch (cloves from the GC) had fallen over and gone brown, but the second batch (grown from cloves we saved from last years harvest) is still growing away nicely! Got a couple of monster cloves (3" across), but the rest of the 48 were all of usable size, most being about 1 1/2" across!

                            Also harvested the first few First Early spuds, just enough for tea, plus 2 courgettes, a sprig of mint (for the spuds) some mange tout, a lovely iceberg lettuce and a few baby carrots, all for tea tonight!
