Green day massacre

The turnips were racing to seed faster than we could consume them; with temperatures warming up ahead of schedule I figured it was time to make a final harvest and turn the bed.

Last before shot:

Step 1 remove the major seed stalks:

Step 2 pick over the spreading lower greens

(I skipped the picture of the turned bed- too graphic for a family oriented garden blog).

Step 3, pile them up in the morning shade of Lizzie’s steps and trick Mrs C to coming out to help.

Step 4, leave the bones of the picked over greens on the steps and go blanch / freeze the two large pots full of the season’s last harvest.
