Together with the farmer in his polytunnel: 2641 Paton, LGs, BG.
Outside: FP (Wursten), marrows (Baggs), zucchini, sunflowers, runnerbeans, beets, carrots, parsnips, leeks.
Also about 150 varieties of (heirloom) strawberry plants and 1000+ pumpkins for retail (about 80 varieties).

Tunnel two is the sheep and goat tunnel. We kicked them out in May and covered the floor with 2 feet of compost and manure. Started the 2158 Paton, 2020 Paton and a local pumpkin. The 2020 didn't germinate and the local pumpkin (Van Raalte) is about 4x the size of the 2158 so we are going with it. There is no soil in this tunnel, just a brick floor.

Tunnel 2 is also home to the long gourds. We have 2 Eatons and 2 Klines going, all in 1000 litre cubes as there is a brick floor in this tunnel.

I grow about 120-140 different varieties of strawberries. The heaviest this year was 113 grams (4 ounces), but it was fused. The heaviest normal one was 98 grams.
