Plenty of potatoes, raspberries.


Dug up most of the raised bed of early potatoes -- more than enough to keep us going until we leave.
Butternut squashes are taking over -- spreading well beyond the confines of their box, and plenty of small squashes BUT many look like the might go rotten, with the lack of hot, non-rainy weather. As an experiment covered a few with plastic fruit trays -- mini-greenhouses to see if that helps.
Latest box, still from loft extension left over wood, placed to right of photo, next to carrot bed. Plan to move rhubard here, or get something orinmental to sand by itself.
Plenty of raspberries coming on -- in fact many of the stalks are falling over due to weight of friut, which means they are hanging in long grass and gettign eaten by slugs.
