More from the Greenhouse


 In the last few months We've had plenty of strawberries, raspberries, cherries, peaches, plums, grapes and nectarines from the greenhouse. The pears have been excellent this year: very large and a delicious flavour. 
 Postulant Mr. Janes picks some of our apples for the table. 
 After being barren for several years, the kiwifruit vines have finally fruited. They are not quite ripe yet, but should be soon.

  1. If you don't mind my asking, how much area do you have devoted to your greenhouse?

  2. Astounding. Both your produce and the fact you're under glass not polytunnels.

    I'm in Thurso and currently grow my veg outdoors. As poorly as my crop was, what shocked me this year was the complete... and, I mean complete... failure of my beetroots.

  3. Puts a whole new meaning into - 'by their fruits you shall know them'!

  4. The next question, though, is what has grown from the grains of mustard seeds you may have cast. What d'you grow outdoors?
