r/Allotment

Getting well into the autumn veg now. Roasted parsnip, carrot and Victor squash, plus leek and chard all from the plot in this one.

We were not expecting to be offered anything like this! Super excited to get started on it. Any advice welcomed as we are complete beginners. I have already bought a month by month allotment book to help and guide us! There is already rhubarb, leeks, strawberries and artichokes planted or actively growing.

Grown and processed by myself. Now to make soup and sauce!

These mashed potato squash don't seem to be getting any bigger now, are they ready to harvest? What's the best way to store them? Like a winter squash?
