Broccoli and Cucumbers
Our latest pickings include Broccoli and Cucumbers…

Garlic Plaiting
We got a little eager and harvested our garlics too early because we had a couple showing signs of mould. Luckily only a few were affected so the survivors were hung up in the shed to dry out for a couple of weeks. Once they were all dry I plaited them together and here is the final product. Hopefully these will store well for the next few months.

Ladybird Pupa
I came across this funny looking orange and brown bug attached to one of my leek leaves.
After a lot of googling, I finally found out that it’s a ladybird in its final stages of development. You find out more about the lifecycle of a ladybird here
