With this great weather set to stick around for a while longer we took the plunge and planted out courgettes and butternut squash in the raised bed kitchen garden. Mollycoddled from seed it was time to take a deep breath and allow tiny tendrils to explore, yikes it’s so hard letting go.
Five courgette plants are more than enough for a family of four although last year we had a really poor crop, we usually struggle to pick them fast enough.
We will never complain again about a courgette glut (Ok, we probably will), fingers crossed for lots this year!
