SGGS: Harvesting and Delicious Food Catered by Cat!
🌱 Sun July 11th, Small Group Gardening Session at RPCG 🌱
We concentrated on tidying up the garden, removing the spent foliage for composting, pruning the espalier orchard and weeding! We also had a great harvest, with many zucchini and squash, a bucket of Red Chieftain potatoes, shallots and green onions, as well as a large pile of second crop lettuce (where the original plant has been cut away and regrowth has occurred from the base!). Additionally, there was a magnificent harvest from the blueberry bushes, the raspberries, tayberries and a few remaining strawberries. Afterwards, we were treated to a Strawberry Lunch provided by Cat Poppins Catering, including strawberry shortcake, strawberry black pepper pies, some savoury items, as well as a delicious strawberry and mint cocktail!
