  1. Beans did great this year, we ate loads, froze some and they just kept coming.

    Peas are done, we let some dry for seeds and tore out the plants and supports.

    The last two surviving sweetcorn cobs were the largest and so got plucked and peeled to dry for seeds.

    Also got seeds from the two tobacco plants that popped up randomly after we dug over the former greenhouse for the first time. Nobody here smokes, but I'm kinda curious to experiment with them.

    Cucumbers are done too.

    Even managed to save a few hazelnuts from the mad squirrels this year.

    Just pumpkins, sunflowers and apples left now. And the apples are pretty sour still. Not enough sun. Endless rain.
