It may be November but after an early morning frost, it was an excellent autumnal day, ideal for (among other odd jobs) planting autumn garlic (many hands quickened the process), while others removed runner bean stems and their supporting canes.

An orange creature was spied clearing dead lower leaves from brussels sprout plants.

Today’s yield was shared.

Straw bales were replaced to form a windbreak and water butts filled before lower temperatures arrive.

Altogether not a bad morning’s work.
