Garden veg

July is here and the garden is offering up the rewards of one's labours.  It all makes for delicious eating :-)

Freshly shelled broad beans in a hand-made coil pot, how very middle-class!  I think they look nice and moody in B&W...


This broccoli, or calabrese, grew as a 'weed', it must have self seeded from last years crop, probably spending the winter in the compost heap.

 


Early Nantes carrots and spring onions.



This pretty parcel is 'Bright Lights' chard.  I love the candy-cane quality of the stems.  Tasty too!



These red chilis and the squashkin are actually last years harvest.  I forgot to upload their pics, so here they are in all their glory...
