Picked my first globe artichoke, cooked and ate it. 3 more on their way. Have to say for all the space it takes up......not a fan. It's ok, and the plant itself is impressive, but hardly worth the taste.
Chinese broccoli keep trying to go to seed, so I keep nipping the tiny bits off and eating them, lovely warmed by the sun.
And cooked the first of our pumpins with the roast. Glad there's plenty of them.
Some days it's hardly worth chewing through the restraints!

Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Cucumber On Saturday. Delighted to get one so early. Type is mini-munch from Unwins. Lots more developing and another one ready to pick. Sowed only first week of March
Just dug some new pots (Rocket)--12= 2 plants
Picked some mint
Spring Onions planted last year
Garlic (very small bulbs but have a ridiculous amount growing)
5 courgettes 4"-5" long.
Have been eating Rhubarb since the 2nd May.
Feed the soil, not the plants.
