Looking forward to pickling it again this year.Louise Houghtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13074355125344865358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-78595324183988094732017-05-27T14:47:40.764+01:002017-05-27T14:47:40.764+01:00Wow, now I feel bad about the post I just did.

Also, fresh herbs!<br />That beet tart is beautiful.

Sown under cover in modules in late Feb & planted out as soon as the weather allows in March, you can be eating them from April/May.<br />I also do this with purple kohl rabi as the early ones seem less inclined to turn 'woody' & are tasty sliced into early season salads. Clumps of early summer variety leeks are easy to grow this way too.Spade and Daggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447641240079673493noreply@blogger.com
