Tumbling Tomato Tuesday (try saying that fast 🤣). I’m loving watching these ripen right outside the back door, not long now and they’ll be ready to pick. Can.not.wait! 💛🧡❤️ #tomatoes #tumblingtomatoes #containergarden #containervegetablegarden #homegrown #growyourown #harvest #garden #gardening #gardener #kitchengarden #ediblegarden #greenfingers

Happy Friday! It’s only taken about 3 years of trying to grow garlic...but I’ve finally got some actual, real life, GARLIC 🙌🏻 I’m just a little bit excited! I stuck a few cloves in the ground a few months back, feeling like I was a bit late putting them in and not holding out much hope as I haven’t had a lot of garlic success in the past but I thought I’d give them a go any way. I guess it’s always worth giving something a go isn’t it?! On a side note, these did have a little bit of rust on the stems but the cloves look absolutely fine. They’ve been left to dry for a week (also I haven’t had time to sort them 🤷🏼‍♀️😂) and I’ve just trimmed them and rubbed the worst of the soil off. Can’t wait to use them! I’m thinking infused oil?

Spot the teeny tiny courgettes 👀 I really really hope these keep growing 🤞🏻I’ve not really grown much in containers in the past. Mostly I’ve transplanted plants straight to the plot once they were big enough. So I’m quite enjoying watching these each day 💚 #containergardening #kitchengarden #ediblegarden #growyourown #gyo #garden #gardening #gardener #homegrown #courgettes #teenytiny #vegetables

Never been so happy to find self seeded potatoes! I must have missed quite a few last year 🤷🏼‍♀️ I didn’t manage to get all my seed potatoes in earlier in the year and the ones I did get in were pretty late too, so I’ve got a little while to wait before they might be ready. I found these whilst weeding and took them straight home for dinner 😋 #allotment #allotmentlife #homegrown #growyourown #gyo #happymistake #potatoes #potato #spuds #selfseeded #dinner #welliesandwheelbarrows #silverlining

Today I finally spent some much needed (baby-free) time down on the plot and got quite a bit cleared. It’s amazing how much you can get done when you know your time is limited. Only thing is I now have a huge pile of weeds that I don’t know what to do with! There are too many for the compost heap (it’s already full) and I’m thinking a bonfire would be hard work to manage with a mini helper! 🤔 Anyway, I found a few potatoes along the way, a few stray garlic and collected a few more raspberries. This time I came prepared with a basket to take them home in 👍🏻 #allotment #allotmentlife #mumlife #homegrown #growyourown #gyo #raspberries #raspberry #freshfruit #berries #basket #eatfresh

Is anyone else finding that their raspberries are HUGE this year? These beauts are not only massive but they taste amazing too! The plan for today was for me to get some time on the allotment whilst little lady had a nap whilst being pushed around the village in her pram...but the weather forecast didn’t prepare us for rain 🤦🏼‍♀️ and so that plan was parked! So instead I had a quick stop off to assess what needed doing (everything, obvs 🙈) so I can hopefully be more prepared for when I can go properly. And whilst I was there I thought it would be rude not to pick a handful of raspberries for the walk home! Ps - I did somehow manage to save a couple for the other half and for little lady (who squashed it in her hand and dropped it...🤷🏼‍♀️). Hope you’ve had a good day. #allotment #allotmentmum #allotmentlife #homegrown #mumlife #growyourown #gyo #raspberries #fruit #summerfruit #healthyeating #berries #eatfresh #zerofoodmiles #garden #gardening #ediblegarden #kitchengarden
