Today is predicted to be hot. I needed to start clearing away all the summer plants, weed and top up with compost
As you can see. Even though I had started , note the pile on the lawn. It was still a nightmare
I had to be careful not to pull up the asparagus while clearing the self seeded tomatoes
They had overgrown into the basil and over the rhubarb and strawberries
It was hard work so I enlisted the help of hubby who cleared away the piles of greenery. Some to the chickens, and some to the stock.

Of course while clearing we found over sized zucchini’s and other squash. They also have been cut up and feed to them
I’m now indoors with a cool glass of water resting.
I’m very glad we have leftovers for dinner.
Aahh those oversized zucchinis. I found one the other day. A veritable marrow. An Afghani guest present at the time of discovery was delighted to take it home. Your patch is already looking refreshed.
ReplyDeleteIt really does look better. Still more to go
DeleteSo handy to have animals helping with the spares
ReplyDeleteNothing is wasted here.
DeleteNice to get it tidied away for autumn.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. Ready for the winter crops
DeleteZucchini are VERY clever at hiding themselves so they can grow to GIGANTIC proportions!
ReplyDeleteI’ve had some so big I had to chop them with an axe!
DeleteYour garden is endless work but the rewards are so worth it. You're feeding family and farm.
ReplyDeleteHave you harvested asparagus yet?
