Bit of a gap posting updates because of our 2 week summer break in France (and then another couple of weeks catching up in the garden and at work).
We left the garden and chickens in the very capable hands of various friends and family and came back to a vegetable garden in full swing. Plentiful beans, tomatoes, cucumber, courgettes, kale, chillies. There was also a good supply of plums and blackberries. We got more than 4 kg of greengages as ground fall, round one tree, which was quickly turned into jam.
