Flowers on the plot the beginning of June.

My little shallot harvest. No that many and not as big as some I've seen. But this is the first time I've grown shallots. I'm going to have a go at pickling them. I will be growing them again but I'm going to try over wintering them and see how that goes. x

My little onion harvest. Their is not as many as I planted because the red onions bolted this year so I pulled them up and grow something else in their place.

I didn’t think I would get a harvest of sweetcorn this year. I planted it a bit late because I was still sorting the bed out that I wanted them to be planted in. But look at this little lot picked just this early evening. They are already in the freezer for when needed.

My only 3 pumkins that grow this year. 1 is already to use and the other 2 need to ripen up.

Clearing the plot for the next growing season. x

The the colour of these begonias is amazing.

Sunday lunch prepared. Spanish potatoes with my last crop of potatoes and my own onions. Roast veg with my carrots and courgettes. My own Runner beans and a few French beans added to the mix.

My little harvest of carrots for this year. The colour when you cut them open is lovely. I only did 2 little tubs of carrots this year what they lacked in size they didn’t lack in flavour.

Again not sure of the names of the flowers. I know they are perennials flowers. They are in Bloom on my allotment on this lovely September day.

The Pond is all finished with pond plants to entice the wildlife to live and feed at the pond. x

Nearly finished wildlife pond on my allotment. I've just got to add pond plants then it's done. Then hopefully the will life will move in xx
