Harvest Monday

The first of my Cabbages, and a couple more beetroot picked tonight by torchlight.


                                                       


  I was a little disappointed with the size of the beets, plenty of healthy strong leaves(the chooks will like them) but there's enough for our breakfast juice in the morning.


                      

Although small the cabbage had a lovely dense head and was very tasty
lightly fried in a little olive oil.

The other half will go into a stir -fry tomorrow night.

                         
Plenty of lettuce and kale, just pick a few leaves as needed............

Also planted out seedlings of Curly Kale and Beetroot.  More garlic cloves, I found an extra rope of garlic in the shed all fat & sprouting  so they have just been tucked in where ever I could find the space.
