Harvest day
June 3, 2007
Today we had a big harvest day on our allotment! It was a nice sunny day and we thought it was time to harvest all of our broad beans and radishes. We also harvested a lot of mint as Ira is going to make me a broad bean and mint soup for tea tomorrow!
We are doing battle with the birds and the bugs at the moment as they seem to have developed a taste for our little pea and bean plants and broccoli and cauliflower which is a bit upsetting, but we have put up lots of netting to combat them.

Beans and radishes look great. Your grandads would have been very proud of you as they loved their gardens. Today it is freezing in Swan Hill not good garden weather.

Hey Ira, good vegies, did you get my email? I’m coming to Paris for 12 months next week.
