Monday Harvest – 12th March 2012

Lots of harvesting this week. Last week we had one bowl of tomatoes and this week three bowls (only two shown in the photo). The plants still have plenty of fruit ripening so there could be a couple of more weeks of harvesting ahead.

Tomatoes (varieties Tommy Toe and Amish Paste)
The capsicums are turning red. We have a typical shaped capsicum and a longer shaped Cubanelle.

The passionfruit vine dropped a lot of fruit this week. I found all these on the concrete:

Some celery stalks. Rather than harvesting the whole plant, I just picked a few stalks:

There were a few root crops harvested this week. Some colourful carrots:

And my favourite, delightfully sweet tasting parsnips:

And the last of the onion bed:
Onion (variety Creamgold)
