Some very impressive veggies there folks, sadly I am unable to compete as it has not been the best year in our garden. I do love to see what other people manage to grow but am happy with my very wonky carrots and little onions, they still feed us :)
Growing old disgracefully!

Crikey between Yorkshire Andys big one and Gillybees Anne summers i feel inferior
My only sucess this year really is I grew two lemons on my lemon tree
One fell off and was scoffed by one of the grandkids the other is still sitting there
I too had small wonky carrots and just enough spuds to make a small mash

All very impressive. My wife had a bumper crop of courgettes this year, kids are sick of them, but they were great. Will be planting plenty again next year.

Wonky carrots is better than no carrots. The slugs got the lot.

Well done folks! Haven’t had that much luck this year. Foraged a bit. Got a few herbs and a tomato plant growing on the window sill. Definitely more work required next year.
