A beautiful day to harvest the first of our winter squash! Definitely earlier than usual but they are beautifully ripe already with all the heat of this summer & there is some rain on the way (hooray) so good time to get them into the polytunnel to cure for a while longer. In the next few weeks we will harvest all the blue (crown prince) squash & the butternuts that are still ripening so need a little longer in the field. Then a green manure will be sown on this plot to feed & protect the soil over winter 🫶🏻🌱
