How has everyone's /allotment been lately? Awfully quiet in here (myself included)... For us, the season is wrapping up slowly. News from arfy's plot: - Managed to harvest the Halloween pumpkin last weekend, nothing massive, but it'll do. Going to make some pie with the innards as well. - Courgettes continue to produce, which is always nice. Been making everything from soup to stir fries with them. - Tomatoes are still being harvested, both cherry and standard tomatoes. Been a fantastic year for tomatoes! Punnets and punnets in our fridge still to eat. - Raspberries are still producing, if you can believe that! They are slowing down though and I expect this weekend might be the final harvest. Really long raspberry season this year, which I'm chuffed about. What about you folks? Hope everything has gone well for you this season! 🙏😻

It's starting to get big.. Wax gourd, also known as winter melon, is often used in soups and stir, fries. It has a fresh, light taste that makes it perfect for everyday dishes. This fruit is also packed with water, which helps keep the body hydrated, and is believed to cool down the body while supporting healthy digestion

Went to the /allotment today, mostly to water and harvest. The big news is that the thornless blackberries we planted this season are starting to ripen! 🙏😸 Came home with courgettes, raspberries, apples, and lots and lots of cherry tomatoes! 😻🍅

Good afternoon Farmers can only do their best to grow, even with limited tools and equipment. We're trying to create new jobs in simple ways. Right now, we’re clearing a new plot of land, cutting the wild grass and wood, then burning it. We’re planning to build raised beds and start planting big red chili peppers. Hopefully, this will be a good start and lead to something meaningful.

Still got more apricots to harvest at the /allotment! This season has been the best year ever for apricots. We keep giving lots away, but some are already starting to get overripe at home... jam time soon! I can't get enough of them fresh though, what an amazing fruit. 😻🍑

I just read my book, meditated and fell asleep at the allotment, then when I woke up I walked around with my headphones on listening to music and harvesting veg. Feeling pretty happy tbh 🥒🌽🥕🥦🍅 Hope you’re having a really lovely day ✨

The rice harvest season is just around the corner. Just a bit more time to wait. Really hope this year brings a good and plentiful harvest. 🙏🌾
