So what have we all got then ?

I got garlic, onions and potatoes in store.

More potatoes still in the ground.

Spinach, spring onions, oca and lambs lettuce on the plot.

More spinach and land cress in the greenhouse

 

Great idea for a thread

I've got frozen tomato sauce

Chard still in the vegtrug

Garlic to plant on 21st December

Micro greens on the kitchen windowsill

Parsley, mint and sage still going on in the herb trough.

Rosemary in the garden

Never got around to checking my potatoes

 

Garlic and onions in garage along with apples pears eaten.
Tomato sauce in freezer.
Kale, brussels, sprouting broccoli, leeks, parsnips and beetroot in the ground.
Garlic and broad beans planted.

 

Would those be aquadulce, Nigel?

 

We are so gonna have to scroll down this when Scrunge finds it

 

Yes right first time. Yet to find a variety to beat them.

 

The store barn is looking healthy this year with onions, shallots, garlic, potimarron squash and 300kgs of butternuts. Then 45 750g jars of ratatouille, 50 jars of various jams, lemon curd, confit of duck, ditto onions and figs. Then broad beans, sweetcorn, asparagus, lemon grass, chillies and herbs in the freezers. Ah and 5 big jars of pickled eggs. Jerusalem artichokes, carrots, parsnips, celeriac and brassicas still on the veg plot. You wouldn't believe that we live on toasted sandwiches, would you?

 

GC word of the week goes to Hazel with...

 

Thank you, thank you, thank you.....Don't know what they're called in English! Poti = from potiron = squash marron = chestnut, so a chestnut-flavoured, bright orange, pear-shaped squash that makes lovely soup! Not as easy to grow as butternuts, though
Reckon Scrungee is still compiling his list

 

I hasten to add that word Celery as I have mentioned it a few times. My large chest freezer has a boulder on it’s lid keeping it down as full doesn’t quite describe it after processing the Celery to as small as possible.
The rest of what i have is in sensible proportions
Chillis .....took @shiney good suggestion and have dried them and now in jars,
Tomato’s made into sauce in jars about 15 jars.
Beetroot pickled......heading towards the Celery amount but not quite (about 40 jars)
Onions, dreadful,were meant to be big ones and are NOT, plus Garlic, good, hanging in a dry outhouse. Garlic planted in pots in the greenhouse for next season.
Huge crop of both eating and cooking Apples. Not too sure what the I am gong to do with these as no room in the freezer due to said Celery. Mind you some b mouse is eating it’s way steadily through a few. For 1 ghastly moment I thought it was something much bigger than a mouse but no the “leavings behind” are definitely mouse. I have made some chutney out of a quantity of the cookers but the pile hasn’t even been dented. There is a grey arrangement in the field who will happily eat any surplus so expect said horse will fall heir to what remains.
Carrot purée in freezer, only puréed because takes up less space. Still got carrots in the ground ( will be used up shortly)along with parsnips, leeks and swede which will stay in situ.
Basil and Parsley still going strong on the kitchen windowsill and think that’s about it
My list is very boring in comparison to @noisette47 ’s which reads like a Fortnum and Masons food catalogue....very jealous! When are you opening your shop noisette?

 

That's a coincidence, @silu.....I'm utterly jealous of your ability to grow apples good enough to store! I have to purée or dry what's left of mine after the codling moth larvae have finished with them. Every year the Bramleys start off looking promising, I thin them out but then they stop growing (probably due to drought?). As for celery......respect is due!

 

In my case, not as much as I had expected. Something or somebody has taken all my chokeberries, wolfberries, and cherries.

At least the quince, gooseberries, and redcurrants gave a good harvest, so they are all waiting to be converted into various things.

 

in the ground/harvesting: spinach, chard, celery, leeks, carrots, parsnips, swede, broccoli, last of the beetroots, few raspberries, herbs

growing: peas, red/white onions, garlic, sprouts, salsify. toms and spuds in polytunnel

in store/fridge/freezer: half sack of main crops, 3 take away tubs of tomato soup, 1 of passata, 1 broccoli and stilton soup, bag of half corn cobs - not many left, 3 home made "bloomin' " onions, beetroot, rhubarb jam, blackcurrant jam - almost gone :'( and chili jam.

 

We still have spuds in the garage plus carrots stored in buckets in there.Raspberries,Strawberries,Runner,French,and Broad Beans in the freezers.Plus onions and shallots that needs pickling before too long so Mr Kandy will have some for Xmas day and then I shall suffer

Today over at the lottie Mr Kandy picked a Romanesco head,dug up a Parsnip plus two Beetroot,(one red one white)and he also harvested a self set cash crop of radish from out of one of my compost bags.Oh and we also picked some more Autumn Raspberries that I thought the frost would have killed off by now the Raspberries are all one picking...
