Its been unusually warm here for coastal NE England, although there remains a pleasant breeze. Ben has been enjoying the warmth although he’s been wise enough to stay out of the hot sun.

While enjoying the sun, I’ve also harvested the goosegogs - a scant 1/2 kg this year compared to the usual 10+. I’ve also started harvesting the blackcurrants. I planted out the edamame beans into one of the troughs and put the rest of the chard in between the beans.
