We have just had the final lot of Broad Beans in the Vegetable Garden. They
have been marvellous.
The first lot of Broad Beans were sown in November. The third and final
planting  was at the end of March which spread the harvest well.

Picking started on 26 June from those planted in November. So we have been harvesting
broad beans from the vegetable garden for 8 weeks. The French Beans are
now producing well, and make a pleasant change. At least French Beans do
not need podding and can be thrown straight into the pan.
