Harvests 2018

This page records what we gather from our garden throughout the year. We started recording in September 2015 to try and obtain an accurate record of what one can actually expect to harvest in a small, town garden. The 2017 list is at http://cavershamgarden.blogspot.co.uk/p/harvests-2017.html,  2016's at http://cavershamgarden.blogspot.co.uk/p/harvests-2016.html and 2015's at http://cavershamgarden.blogspot.co.uk/p/harvest.html.

Note: we are no longer keeping a record of the weight of lettuces and herbs that we gather. It became tedious and time consuming having to record every sprig and couple of leaves that we picked!

There is also a Google docs spreadsheet listing the weights and running totals for each year.
