Just finished making a relish with cucamelons, tiny melons, onions, red and yellow peppers with herbs from the garden (thyme, mint, chives and fennel).
Must say it looks good so hopefully it taste good as well. Needs to mature.
Am picking a punnet of tomatoes a day. Mostly cherry there are some tigrella underneath. The beans,were just one plant, climbing French Cobra. Peppers are ripening. Hubby got a punnet of strawberries, raspberries, blackberry. We indulged in a rare cooked breakfast yesterday,plenty of tomatoes.
Almost everything is winding down here, except for the chillies which are going great guns. Aubergines have only now started to flower and set fruit, I doubt whether they will be ready for picking before the cold weather sets in. After all, growing them outside was a risk.

And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils (roses). Taking a bit of liberty with Wordsworth
We are still harvesting purple tee beans, pea beans, leeks, beetroot, spinach, potatoes and in the polytunnel peppers, aubergines, tomatoes (not many) salad crops, and still cucamelons and then a variety of apples and pears outdoors and in the next few weeks medlars and quinces with grapes for the next wine harvest.
