Chard

There has been so little frost this winter that the plants usually killed off over winter, have continued to grow and crop. Moonface's allotment is still producing chard in great quantities, enough to provide vegetables & salad for a couple of meals per week. (Although it's getting a little tough to use as salad leaves)

The rocket which Moonfaces sowed last year has self-seeded, and also produces enough leaves to fill a bag every week. Spring is coming, & it's time to start the cycle again.
