Despite the unseasonal, record breaking heat and humidity the produce at the garden is growing well (with a little help from the volunteers). At the moment tomatoes are ripening fast, the courgettes and cucumber seasonal is almost over and the pole beans are coming to end. meanwhile aubergines and peppers are about to start to fill the baskets and later there will be a lot of winter squash.
We harvest twice a week on Monday and Thursday mornings starting at about 8am to try to beat the heat.
By the end of last week (19 August) we had picked and delivered:
