Post holiday produce
Just back from our hols and we have a new look for the Belleville blog. We've also harvested lots of tomatoes which are now ripening nicely.

We also have spinach, chard, rocket. The carrots are just about ready but too small. The parsnips are also doing well.
Chillies and aubergine are also coming along nicely, and should be available in a couple of weeks, touch wood.
STOP PRESS: Below is a BRANDYWINE tomato, considered by some to be the tastiest tomato in the world. This one looks slightly more weird than they normally do so I didn't sell it. Which meant I could eat it myself. It was VERY tasty, so look out for them at the next produce sale on Wednesday (if any more have ripened by then). Midday and six pm is the plan.
