Strawberries and rhubarb




This evening I have picked my first strawberries of the year.  But my strawberry patch, now in its third year, is really getting going and there will be hundreds of fruits right through the summer.

And this morning I picked my first rhubarb since planting the crowns three years ago.  I was doubtful about growing rhubarb here, as it is meant to like damp conditions.  Here it benefits from the automatic watering system and is going like the clappers!  Plenty more meals to come yet this year....
