There is plenty to harvest in the veg garden.
Beans, beans, beans.
Escapee courgettes have turned into giant marrows and squash have infiltrated the space for other crops. Some un-named squash climbing up the sweetcorn.
I find what has been hidden underneath as the leaves die back.
I've been making chutney with an assortment of fruit and veg, plums, marrow, figs, onions, you name it, it's in the chutney! Rather an eye-watering mix as it bubbles on the hob, but by Christmas I'm hoping it will taste rather good!
I've looked in vain in the small garden pond in search of my merry band of newts. Not one to be seen since the visit of the grass snake. I'm very miffed.
Here's my sky seen in the water to share with Skywatch Friday.
Oh that chutney is beautiful. You still have much in the garden. We have our first misty morn of the autumn. Sure sign of fall.
ReplyDeleteYes, we are greedy eaters at this time of year, but things are going over and now I'm leaving some of the plants to set seed which I'll use next year.
DeleteYou have a beautiful vege garden. Sorry to hear about the newts... hopefully they will turn up!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping!
DeleteWhat a beauty of a veg garden. I love fresh beans and courgettes.
ReplyDeleteIf you lived nearby, Bill, I'd be offloading some large courgettes on you - the ones that got away. The neighbours have had enough of them!
DeleteLovely . Please tell something about my capture on my blog.
ReplyDeleteSuch a good photo on your blog this week, Aditya.
DeleteThe chutney will be delicious, I'm sure. Your vegetable garden is a feast for the eye and of course for your mouths.
ReplyDeleteWe are eating very well from the garden just now, Janneke, but the whole garden is in need of a great deal of attention after such an extreme summer. Dead trees and bushes to remove, patches of lawn to re-seed and clogged borders to sort out. I'm feeling rather overwhelmed!
Deletewonderful veg.garden.
ReplyDeleteI wish would provide healthy vegetable for you.
have a great day
Hello Tanza, this time of year sees the payoff for the work put into the veg garden earlier in the season. We are eating very well!
DeleteIt seems you must have kept a few plants alive... Such bounty.
ReplyDeleteWith your chutney it sounds like you like cook a bit of everything. Must look up how to make it.
cheers, parsnip and badger
As is always the case in a garden, Parsnip, there have been successes and failures! Hoping the chutney will be good but it takes a good three months to mature so I shall have to wait to find out.
DeleteLovely gardens, veggies, chutney, reflections, photos . . .
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting/commenting on my Irish Garden House . . . on my post of my Little Great Grand daughter’s first day of precschool.
With a surname like mine I couldn't resist taking a look at your Irish garden House!
Delete"Miffed" -- ok, do understand that!
ReplyDeleteWe are having beautiful September weather here also although it has been very dry here all summer.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visit ....I did indeed have fun decorating our little Boathouse!
We have gone to your beautiful country twice and I dream of going back someday.
Enjoy your garden produce.
Carolyn
I love the reflection of the sky in the water! :) Oh, yes, end of summer...cool nights...last of the harvest...I'm feeling a little tired from the summer, but it's been a wonderful one! :)
