Harvests 2020

This page records what we gather from our garden throughout 2020. 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. Previous years can be found at:

2019 https://cavershamgarden.blogspot.com/p/this-page-records-what-we-gather-from.html
2018 https://cavershamgarden.blogspot.com/p/harvests-2018.html
2017 http://cavershamgarden.blogspot.co.uk/p/harvests-2017.html
2016 http://cavershamgarden.blogspot.co.uk/p/harvests-2016.html
2015 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.
