One madman and one semi-mad woman with self-sufficient, organic, debt-free pretensions in Brittany.

Pause and save.
Ok, got to be realistic here: got to concentrate on the house or we'll never move back in! Veg on hold until next year, more's the pity. Still, should have enough spuds to last until then so ne bother.

August
Onions drying.
Garlic done.
Watermelon coming and there are loads of cantaloupes as well!
Toms are a bit disappointing this year...
Red onions are the best we've done so far. We have about 200 of them!
Peas a go-go.
Squash, courgette, corn and cucumbers taking off.
140 leeks in. This year is Big Leek year - spaced well, fed well, watered well, earthed up.
Spuds are ok, but got blight. Still, should end up with about 3 barrow loads and the earlies are in storage - 2 sacks - so we won't exactly starve..
AUTUMN cabbages for sauerkraut! Got more coming!
Soft fruit all done. Tons of it!
I blame Chef's Special Sauce. Sorry, secret recipe.
