I am so behind getting stuff done, this week will be spent sorting out the poly tunnels, they are looking a bit of a shambles.
Pak Choi is still doing OK, we have been harvesting it as needed.
The beetroot needs taking up before its gets woody.
The onions are all growing now.
Satsumas are ready for picking
There is still a few lettuce
Lemons need harvesting they are starting to drop from the branches now
Chop Suey greens and Chinese cabbage are also welcome additions to stir fry's.
the Yacon is waiting to be harvested along with the Oca,
so I need to get out there and get things done.

Oh Dawn, HOW exciting to have your own satsumas and lemons for Christmas! My onions, and garlic, are showing signs of life outside but not got round to taking a photo yet.
