This could well be one of those ‘be careful what you wish for’ moments. After three successive broad bean crop failures, this is turning out to be a bumper year that has coincided with the pea and asparagus harvests too. I’d like to say I’d planned it that way but it was more luck than anything…
Billy has been happy to help with any peas that have gone over but in his old age, he’s decided he prefers his broad beans shelled!
The bowl for the compost heap was considerably larger than the one for eating…

Delicious!!!
Well worth the effort. Billy looks happy. xx
He’s at the vet’s today for ‘investigations’, but I’m hopeful it’s just a blip and he’ll soon be back on polytunnel patrol.
I hope he’s okay. xx
Lovely crops! My broad beans are still in flower but hopefully they’ll do well this year after last year’s flop.
Thanks. Fingers crossed for yours
Thank you!
Wow! That is a really early harvest!!
It is – I love the polytunnel
