Living off the land

The dream
The reality!
My sweet peas didn't flower either, but they looked quite pretty and green
twirling around the sweet pea sticks
The courgettes however, crossed their fingers and battled on.
They felt at home in the old danish wooden beer crate!
and after constant watching and waiting feeding and watering
we had three two and a half courgettes for tea.
No photograph - sorry, we ate them too quickly.
Ah well, there is always next year!

A complete washout in this neck of the woods too. I put in so much work for so little return. I am so grateful for our veg box scheme. The only glut we've got is from next door's pear tree.

Our garden roasted in the summer heat, except for the weeds. They're reporting that we had the hottest summer on record, gee, I would never have figured that out.

Things aren't always so productive as we wish ... but the photos are great fun!
