Summer Solstice Produce
This is what we are currently eating from the garden.
And these are what we are currently drying for replanting.
Broad beans are delicious, but they're also good as a soil improver (nitrogen). After I harvested all these beans I pulled up the plants and lay them across the garden bed. Then I raked wood chips over them (carbon). With this as one of our methods our soils are gradually improving season by season, making our garden increasingly productive.
A very merry solstice to you all.
