Picking the turnips

Time to pick the turnips which were planted out a few months ago.

Some of the tops were a bit nibbled and eaten by something, but we managed to harvest quite a few.

 The question is what to do with a box full of turnips?

A bed of garlic, which looks good.  We have plans to use this to make a batch of garlic infused olive oil later in the year.

Giving the hens a really good clean out.

And our first visitor to the new pond!  There was great excitement at the news that there was a duck on the pond - its a shame that it was a yellow plastic one!
