Succesful crops

Broad Beans

The broad beans are now cropping heavily despite their late sowing.

Climbing Peas

We are now seeing the fruits of a struggle against pigeon and rabbit damage and are now getting a reasonable result from the pea crop.

The new rhubarb beds

The new rhubarb beds planted at the end of April are growing fantastically well. No doubt due to a more than liberal dressing of manure.

The Melon House

The photo's show cucumbers, melons and Achocha growing away happily. the melons are approaching the pollination stage.

Kale and Broccoli

Although it tried to run to seed earlier in the season the Black Kale is now almost ready for harvest and the White sprouting broccoli is growing away well.
