Potato tyre tower put together

I put the potato tyre tower together a few days ago, using straw as the growing medium.  Now we wait!

Spuds!

Well, the main crop potatoes are now up - pleased to say we have filled three full sacks (lovely hessian sacks from the Organic Catalogue people that smell like old garden sheds).

We have been a bit remiss with the weeding as we may be moving away, so don’t know if we will be able to keep this plot after Christmas, consequently the plot looks a bit wild. I am determined not to pass it on to the next person in to bad a state though.

The squash and courgettes continue to fill our cupboards, and we now have a steady supply of tomatoes - most of which get roasted and turned into sauce (see Giles’ post below).

I will post up my favorite Madha Jaffrey squash/pumpkin soup recipe later.
