The broadbeans are coming along nicely and I will sow a successive crop soon. They are a favourite here.
This picture doesn't do justice to the cute little lettuce- Freckles. It is a bit overshadowed by the dill too.
There are still some potatoes in the garden. Despite already having a number of frosts, this purple congo variety are still putting on growth.
This is my meagre harvest of turmeric. I have grown it for a couple of years now after Julie sent me some tubers. I think I will only dry and grind one tuber and save the rest for next year. I am in an area that has hot dry summers and quite cold winters so not ideal for growing this type of plant but I won't let that stop me. The scent of the turmeric freshly dug is quite intense and conjures up pictures of spicy curries.
