The
main border with tomatoes, sprouts and potatoes

The
Brussel Sprouts - Luke won't be doing these again next year

The
sprouts just starting to appear...

The
four varieties of tomatoes Luke is growing in his garden -
Red Plum; Golden Sunrise; Shirley and Big Boy!

May
have to try harder with the lettuce next year!
