Good for you with the winter veg garden. Sounds interesting. Yes I've done jams, marmalades, vodkas, dehydrating, freezer items, cordials and now the tomatoes which are delicious!

I have rosemary envy. Mine appears to have died in the heat; it was quite a young plant so maybe just couldn't handle it. the party looked amazing - loving the ping pong table. I've never heard of fly strike, sorry about that. Your soft fruit harvest is amazing. Grace is growing so much, just like Harry! Lovely to see how you are getting on during the summer.xxLouise Houghtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13074355125344865358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-78775729142322385712018-07-23T03:14:31.982-07:002018-07-23T03:14:31.982-07:00We're growing quinoa as an experiment.Our cucu...We're growing quinoa as an experiment.Our cucumbers srr prolific, but our potatoes have scab. Changing to a resistant variety and changing to a different raised bed next season to prevent it occurring again.This is our first harvest, as we only moved from a Dorset harbour town a year ago. We have 4 sheep.

I have just had a load of seedlings delivered so that I get a winter veg garden - decided on a potager style plot; however next year will aim to do all the sowing myself. I have in other years that is what I like doing the most growing the seed and bringing the plants on. Have you managed to do any preserving?? Its been full steam ahead here for the past few weeks and lots of other things in the pipeline as well including decorating. Glad to see you are about. Hugs to you all.
