Hi. crops i have in this year are. Basic veg like, tomatoes,potatos,cucumber and lettuce. I also have got some rhubarb growing to. oh and some sweet chillis. Like to make use of wild foods and at the bottom of my garden i have a small patch of wild garlic (ramsons). And as i live in cornwall i love to forage on the beach for free food.
