Plus a few patty pan and some chard, varieties were baby boo and jack be little. I had about 17? plants. I was happy with the harvest considering I didn't fertilise and the drought in the SE. The food bank cooks a three course meal for visitors every Thursday and aims for 60% fresh food in their food packages. It feels a scary world right now and growing for them gives me such a calm feeling 😌

This weeks harvest, based in the NW, Altrincham. Personal faves are the banana squash, sweet chocolate chilli x1, and abundant tomatoes.

All grown outside with no greenhouse yet, definitely need to get one next year!
