Autumn is upon us and some of the plants are coming to an end. Now is the time to start harvesting your winter squashes and pumpkins. Here’s how mine got on this year.

It’s that time of year when you can start to harvest some of your brassicas. They’ve been growing really well all summer and your managed to keep the birds and most of the butterflies at bay. So now you get your reward.
